Our first term 2011-2012

Our First Term

Our first term is almost over and we are now thinking about Christmas. It has been a busy term with lots of events. In year six, we had our residential trip. We spent a school week in Norfolk(about two hours away by coach) and had a great time. A numbr of activities were prepared for us such as quad biking, archery and leap of faith. In the evenings, we had, amongst other things, a campfire and a disco.

Tonight we have our annual carol concert and this Friday it is our Christmas bazaar which we are all looking forward to. The rumour is that Father Christmas is going to make an appearance!
On behalf of Wickford Junior School, we wish our Spanish friends a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! Feliz Navidad.

We got some New Year cards from our link school in Wickford. In some of them they tell us about their resolutions for this year. We have read the cards in class and  we have displayed them on the classroom wall. We'll take them home at the end of the week.

This week we are going to write and send individual letters telling them about our Christmas holidays and we'll include some New Year's resolutions, too. Thanks for the cards!

"The 12 Days of Christmas" carol

A la vuelta de vacaciones nos hemos encontrado tarjetas de felicitación del nuevo año de nuestros amigos en Wickford. En algunas, incluyen sus propósitos para este año. Hemos leído las tarjetas en clase y las hemos puesto en el display que tenemos en clase. Las llevaremos a casa a finales de semana.

Esta semana vamos a enviar cartas individuales contando cómo hemos pasado las navidades y también incluiremos algunos propósitos. Gracias por vuestras tarjetas.

The Autumn term was very busy and we ended it with a carol concert, Christmas parties and a Christmas bazaar. Father Christmas visited us to deliver presents and everybody had a lovely time. Just before Christmas, we sent Happy New Year cards to our Spanish friends.

We are now back at school following the Christmas holidays ready to start our Spring term.

El primer trimestre estaba muy atareado y lo acabamos con un concierto de villancicos y fiestas de Navidad. Papa Noel nos visito para darnos regalos y todos se disfrutaban. Enviamos tarjetas a nuestros amigos espanoles.
Acabamos de volver para empezar el segundo trimestre.
