Congratulations to Jessica J - our Ray of Sunshine last week. Well done! Jessica was voted for being kind hearted and for helping when Rebecca F fell over. This week our award goes to Charlie for being a good friend and encouraging others when playing. Well done Charlie (and we’re glad you are better!)

Well done to Tom for achieving the Ray of Sunshine award last week and Lauren for getting it this week. Tom was voted for because he helped somebody who had been hurt and plays nicely on the playground and Lauren was voted for because she makes playtime fun! Well done to both of you.

This week our Ray of Sunshine award goes to Jessica Harrison. Jessica was voted for always allowing others to play with her which is something we should all aim to do.

Last week the award went home once again with Amy. Amy was voted for by Lauren who said that Amy always has a smile on her face. What a lovely reason (and very true too).

Well done Sam Fowler! Sam achieved the award this week for helping somebody with their work. Very kind Sam!

Hi Y4,

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope you have all had a fantastic Christmas and that Santa brought you some exciting presents! I’m sure you are just as excited about returning to school tomorrow as you were on Christmas morning!

I just wanted to say a huge thank-you for all the lovely Christmas cards and gifts you gave to myself and to Mrs Parr - it was really very kind of you and your parents. Thank you very much.

See you in the morning, from Miss Rice x

Christmas Poem

Christmas time is a time of good cheer,
Happiness around us to last all year.
Rudolph is busy pulling the sleigh,
In all kinds of weather aty night, not day.
Santa is waiting to deliver to all,
The presents are ready, some big and some small.
Merry Christmas to everyone near and far,
And high on your Christmas tree an angel or star.
Soon it is over for another year.

By Jessica H

Christmas Poem

Christmas is the best thing in the year
Have a mince pie Santa
Reindeer like carrots
I like Christmas all the time
Santa is the best
There’s Santa!
Merry Christmas everyone
And Christmas trees are so exciting
Santa is coming to town.

By Josh

Please have a look at these lovely acrostic Christmas poems, written recently by some of the children in their writing logs. I’m all in the mood for Christmas now!

Christmas Poem

Christmas is very exciting and fun.
Ho ho ho merry Christmas.
Rudolf has a very shiny nose.
Ice is hanging from the trees.
Stars are shining brightly on our tree.
Turkey is for dinner with lots of vegetables.
Mistletoe is hanging from the door.
Across the sky, Santa flys.
Santa has been, hip hip hip hooray!

By Charlie

Christmas Poem

Christmas is the time of year everyone enjoys,
Ho ho, father Christmas is here for the girls and boys,
Rudolf the reindeer flys high in the sky with a big sack full of toys.
Inside every house people have a cup of tea,
Sometimes you see,
Tinsel on the tree.
Morning to night Santa works at his shop,
And tells the elves when to work and when to stop.
Some boys and girls have a Santa top.

By Darcey

Poem

Carol singers knock on the door,
Having fun is all that we adore.
Ringing bells all night long,
Icy robins tweeting a song.
Santa is on his sleigh saying ho ho ho,
Trees are lit up brightly in the snow.
Misletoe above your head while you kiss,
All wide awake thoe children don’t miss.
Singing and dancing all they go!

At present we are unable to write on the site in school due to being blocked from writing posts by Sefton’s new filtering service, so there are a few sunshine celebrations to catch up on.

Congratulations went to Rebecca M a couple of weeks ago for “always being nice”. Following Rebecca it was Antony’s turn. Amy voted for Antony after he helped her to clean up her bag when something was accidently spilt on it. Last Friday our Ray of Sunshine went to Beth for including children who had no-one to play with. Well done to all three of you - excellent reasons!

There is a very good and important website that tells you all about safety on the internet at http://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/8_10/

It is also included in the links section at the side of your blog.
