There was a lot of joy and happiness spread across the dinner halls. Everyone enjoyed having a bit of a sing along to the Christmas carols while eating their Christmas lunch.

A big thank you to all the kitchen staff for their hard work in making a delicious Christmas lunch for everyone. There was a lot of joy and happiness spread across the dinner halls. Everyone enjoyed having a bit of a sing along to the Christmas carols while eating their Christmas lunch.
The children of Year 6 recently learnt about what a Christingle is (oranges wrapped in red tape, decorated with dried fruit or sweets, with a candle on the top) and how each element has a special meaning. The orange represents the world; the red ribbon (or tape) symbolises the love and blood of Christ; the sweets represent all of God's creations and the lit candle represents Jesus's light in the world, bringing hope to people living in darkness. The children enjoyed making Christingles and gaining awareness of this celebration. Many children also shared some of their own experiences of traditions and festivals that are celebrated within their own faiths or homes
Once again this year each class decorated their very own Christmas hoop which have been displayed in our school hall for everyone to admire.
KS1 have been searching high and low for Santa’s Hat! The old clot, where did he leave it?
We were delighted to invite all parents to attend a Christmas Fun Sessions today in our nursery.
On Friday 9th December we invited pupils and staff to come to school wearing their Christmas jumpers so we could raise money for Save the Children. Everyone was feeling and looking very festive and it really was a fantastic sight to see so many colourful, glittery and festive jumpers.
Children have been learning about fairy-tales in reception so we held a special fairy-tale ball to celebrate.
In Year 1 this term, we have been spending our afternoons completing our learning through Play Projects.
Our Reception children had a fantastic time going on a shopping experience at the local
Co-op.
Today all Nursery & Reception children were very excited about our guests. We have the chance to meet the Police officers who tell us a lot about their job. Children have learnt that the Police use different vehicles, even boats, to help people around. The Police officers are always happy to say "Hello" to the children, so if you meet one on the road, smile, wave and say hello. At the end of the visit, all children received a lovely sticker.
Heathrow kindly donated two Christmas trees to William Byrd and with the help of Heathrow Rangers and some Year 6 children they decorated them both beautifully.
