Christmas Feast
Well done to Martin, our cook and Trudi for making a scrumptious Christmas lunch for the whole school. We sat down together, pulled crackers, told silly jokes and sang along to Christmas songs. Christmas has arrived!
“He’s behind you!” – “Oh no he’s not!”
The Dick Whittington Panto came to Kenn School – kindly paid for by the fundraising efforts of the PTA. The children were part of the show, taking on different roles throughout. It was a lovely Christmas treat and lovely to share the tradition of panto with the children.
Prayer Space
The ICE team came into school to set up Prayer Space – calm, comfortable spaces to give our children a chance to explore different ways of praying or reflecting quietly. There were creative activities and space to be still if they wanted this.
Letters to Father Christmas

Autumn in Class 1
