December Update

What a busy term it has been so far! And there are so many more exciting things to come in the final two weeks as we lead up to Christmas! Our Year 6 children and staff returned from safely from Rhos-Y-Gwaliau last week, exhausted but elated by the experiences they had up in North Wales. For parents who have younger children, the Y6 residential is simply one of the highlights of Y6- it promotes independence and a chance to develop team working skills at the same time as trying out new experiences in a very different environment to Maidenhead. you can read all about it in this newsletter!

We have already begun our Christmas events- the panto this week was brilliant- and our staff were very involved too- well done to Mr Bowen, Mrs Keating-Bell, Miss Morales and Mr Sawle who were picked out to do some dancing on stage! We have also been practising Christmas songs, Y3 are busy finalising their Christmas plays and making lanterns, we have also had a brilliant house quiz and cross-country event and a fantastic poet into school. You can read more about all of these events and find out what each year group has been learning later in the newsletter.

We look forward to seeing you all at the FPSA Christmas Fair on Saturday- please come along and support this event to help us raise much needed funds for all the brilliant things we do at FPJS. Our wonderful choir, led by Mr Bowen will be singing at the start of the event to get us all in the Christmas spirit!
