It has been an exciting week for the school as Monday saw the start of the installation of our new Crinkle Crags equipment.  This is a project that develops physical play opportunities outside at breaktimes. The Crinkle Crags equipment is a large climber/bird watching tower structure for children to scramble on outside.  We hope that this will be completed by the end of next week and look forward to watching the children develop their physical skills whilst playing.

It has been lovely to welcome all the children back for the start of the new term.

This week Year 5 had an exciting day: Wilderness Outdoor Education visited the school to deliver a Polar Regions Survival Workshop.  The children enjoyed learning about how to prepare for a Polar Expedition and how to survive in these regions.  A great day was had by all.

Pictures from this day can be viewed in the Year 5 Gallery.

Merry Christmas!

We have had a fun week full of smiles and laughter.  Tuesday saw the trip to the pantomime for years 3 to 6, and yesterday the younger children had a Christmas party and a visit from Santa.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish every a good break and I look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday 5th January for the start of term.

This week we have made a start on recording our Christmas Shows.  They are all looking very festive.  We have already recorded Nursery and Reception’s shows, and are looking forward to doing Years 3&4 later today, and Years 1&2 next week.  Years 5&6 will be performing their show in January.  These shows are being uploaded to our website for parents to watch, the videos are password protected and passwords will be sent out to parents.  You can access the shows at https://www.framprimary.durham.sch.uk/community/gallery/christmas-performances/ .

The Music Club has been very busy rehearsing and recording a Christmas song which is being entered into the Durham Music Service’s Christmas Choir Competition.  You can view the entry in the video below.  Well done!

It is lovely to see all the children at school today in their onesies supporting Children in Need – thank you all for your donations.

The children have all been busy rehearsing their Christmas shows this week – it is starting to sound very good.

Next week we are looking forward to the Year 1 and 2 inter-house sports event on Monday – don’t forget your PE kits!

Thank you for all your donations for Remembrance Day.  We have raised a lot of money for the Royal British Legion, which was much appreciated.

Next week we are looking forward to Children in Need Day on Friday the 19th.  Children can come to school in either a onesie or pyjamas.
