Chilcote school annual Christmas service at St Peter`s church

On Friday 20th December, we held our annual Christmas Service at St Peters Church.
The whole school travelled to St Peters by double decker bus or minibus as the weather forecast was for heavy rain . Everyone behaved beautifully, had excellent audience manners and the singing sounded fantastic. It was a very special morning.
Year 6 and staff acted out a retelling of the Christmas story and described how Christmas and Christianity is similar to other faiths and religions.Year 6 all received a Christingle which they held alight at the front of the church. The school staff band played a selection of Christmas carols and we were very pleased to welcome back Mrs Bramley, who is an important member of the band.
  Well done everyone. All the staff are very proud of you.

Photos and videos were taken but due to technical issues, we cannot publish them just yet.
They will follow in the New Year.

With all best wishes to you all for a happy and restful holiday.

Chilcote's Great Paper Caper

Two weeks ago the whole school gathered to hear the story of The Great Paper Caper where we learnt about the mystery of trees going missing from a forest. It turns out it was the work of a frustrated bear who was desperate to win a paper airplane competition, but wasn't very good at making them!

The animals who lived in the wood sent us a letter asking if we could help Bear to find out what the best airplane was, so we got to work straight away. EYFS and Key Stage One investigated different types of material whilst Key Stage Two used their science knowledge to focus on the design. We all used our science skills to plan our investigations and design our planes.







There have been many practice sessions and test runs held on the playground during the last two weeks and we have all reported back to Bear with our findings. We were very good at explaining our scientific knowledge to him. Good luck Bear, we hope you win!

Santa Visits Reception!

This afternoon we had a special visitor. We were so surprised and excited when Santa came through the door! We sang some festive songs to him and promised that we would leave a treat for him and his reindeer on Christmas Eve.
