• Elf Day and Christmas Dinner

  Thu 10 Dec 2015 Karen Cartwright

  Wednesday December 9th was a very exciting day for Elfrida Primary School.  Not only was it Elf day, but it was also Christmas dinner day!

  During Elf day all of the children, dressed as Elves, travel to different classrooms to do activities with different teachers.  (The teachers are also dressed as elves!).  Children completed musical activities, created animations, ordered presents in different sizes, created cards and made paper plate snowmen, amongst many other things.

  Everyone had lots of fun and the school certainly looked more glittery after the event!

  While all of this was happening the kitchen staff were working hard to prepare dinner for 500 people!  Everyone sat down with their class and their teachers to enjoy a traditional meal, which was delicious.

  A huge thank you to everyone both in and out of the kitchen who worked so hard to make this a great day.

   

  

• Green Card Rewards

  Tue 08 Dec 2015 Karen Cartwright

  Yesterday over 200 children celebrated keeping their card green with a circus workshop in the hall.  The children were in groups of about 30 and learnt to juggle with scarves, spin plates, balance feathers and even walk on tightropes!

  Everyone was very enthusiastic - even the teachers joined in!

  Sam from Circus on Purpose came in with all of his equipment and showed that it really is worth staying on green. 

  More rewards will follow throughout the year for those children who make the right choices all of the time!

  Congratulations to all of you who took part, for always making the right choices.   Keep it up!

   

  

• Winter Discos

  Wed 02 Dec 2015 Karen Cartwright

  The KS1 disco proved to be a hit on Tuesday night.

  Lots of amazing dancing was spotted, even the teachers and some of the parents joined in.  Ms Newton was upset not to win the dancing competition, but agreed that the children were superior dancers!

  KS2 also had a fantastic disco on Wednesday night.  Again there were some great dance moves spotted and smiles and laughter all round.

  Thanks to the members of the PTFA who worked so hard to organise these and the DJ for his excellent music!
