Expert Visit

This morning, we have been joined by author and illustrator, Phil Sheppard, who has talked to us about his story writing and illustrating, as well as his research for his books all about Doncaster. We will be using Phil’s book as our model text for our first writing cycle, so we have enjoyed asking him lots of questions and learn from his expertise. We were even lucky enough to hear a little about Phil’s next project! Thank you, Phil #LovePlover

Our UKS2 nativity tickets!

We have not given out physical tickets, we have a register to avoid printing unnecessary paper. Please arrive promptly for a 3:30pm start.

Refreshments will be available and we will be running a small raffle. All funds raised will go towards leavers hoodies.

I have blogged, emailed, sent letters and texts regarding tickets and the final deadline was 6pm on Friday to request tickets. Should there be any spare and anyone cancels, the spare tickets will be offered to those on the reserve list. You must email myself to be placed on the reserve list.

Thank you!

UKS2 Nativity- no more tickets left!

We are now at full capacity and have no more available tickets! Everybody who has requested tickets up to now have secured them.

Please can I ask if anyone else does require a ticket, please pop me an email and I can put you on the reserve list. Also, if you no longer require all of your tickets, please do let me know so I can pass these on.

We politely ask where possible, prams are left outside of the hall due to space. We will have some space at the back for prams but this space will be limited. We will not be able to accommodate prams in our first block of seating. Staff will guide you on the night where to sit if you must bring a pram inside the hall.

We will have a small raffle on the night with various prizes as well as refreshments for sale. We will also have some Christmas crafts and decorations for sale. All funds raised at this event will go towards Y6 leavers hoodies!

Thank you so much for your support and we can’t wait to see you on Monday at 3:30pm for our school nativity!
