Merry Christmas!

We break up today after a lovely week of Christmas concerts, Christmas activities, a Christmas lunch, the choir performing for

Fairfield residents, a magician and a special visit from Santa!

Sadly, the pantomime was cancelled, but we have rearranged it for the afternoon of Thursday 9th January, so the children have

something special to look forward to in the New Year.

A list of holiday activities can be found on our Schudio App in the ‘News’ section.

We hope everyone has a lovely holiday and the children come back on Monday 6th January 2020 refreshed and

ready for a busy and exciting Spring Term.

Hello & Goodbye & Good Luck

Today we have said goodbye and good luck to Miss Ruddock, Daisy class teacher as she moves on to an exciting new job at another

school. Thanks for all your hard work at Cedars, we shall miss you!

Mrs Smith, is moving to be the new teacher for Daisy, and we welcome Mrs Whittle to Daffodil class.

Choir Concert

Our School Choir held a special Christmas performance for visitors from Fairfield Care Home this week.

We welcomed our visitors with Carols and festive songs and finished with a cup of tea and a mince-pie. The children and the audience had a lovely morning and everyone enjoyed themselves.

What an inspirational school! Every child had a smile on their face. I would be out of a job if all schools were like this. Teddy is the extra bit of magic here. A wonderful setting for children to thrive. I was truly impressed with your whole ethos!
