The Big Little Nativity – 14th and 15th December 2023

Well done to all the children in KS1 for their wonderful Nativity performances this week. They have all worked really hard to learn their lines, songs and actions to make sure they put on a truly entertaining show. Thank you to everyone who attended one of the performances – we hope you enjoyed watching. Apley Wood really does have some really talented actors, singers and dancers.

WB 11.12.23 – DT in Base 6

We’ve loved making our sustainable Christmas decoration using recycled materials from home. The children designed their decoration and then made them independently using the resources available to them. We had all morning to get stuck in, and the children absolutely loved it!

WB 11.12.23 – KS1 and EYFS Hobgoblin Theatre Performance

KS1 and EYFS really enjoyed the Hobgoblin theatre performance this morning. They enjoyed joining in with repeated phrases and singing some well know Christmas songs.

There was lots of smiles and plenty of belly laughing, especially when Mrs Garraway and Mrs Jones were on stage doing the conga as the pantomime horse!

We are now feeling very festive and looking forward to Christmas even more.
