Real life heroes!

We have been very fortunate to be lucky recipients of some presents from Santa’s helpers. Ecofficiency have been ever so generous and their wonderful staff have donated some amazing gifts for us to distribute to our school community. We feel so humbled and grateful by this very kind gesture.

Visit to Santa!

Crew Hamill loved their visit to Santa yesterday and we didn’t let the Grinch scare us. (Well, not too much!) How lovely to receive a gift each – some of us have started reading them already! 🙂

Christmas singing at China Cottage

I had the pleasure of taking Crew Elmer to our local care home China Cottage to sing a number of Christmas songs for their residents. It was a really lovely morning and the children made me very proud. They have worked so hard on practising the songs and they sang so beautifully. The residents joined in and it brought a smile to every face in the room. The children were then treated to a little gift that had been wrapped by the residents themselves, handed out by Santa and his elf. Thank you so much to the team at China Cottage for allowing us to come and spread some Christmas joy, and for all their hard work looking after the wonderful residents in their care. Wishing everyone at China Cottage a very merry Christmas!
