Nursery visited Santa’s Winter Wonderland and it was amazing! We met Sparkle the Christmas Elf, decorated hats and made our own Christmas tree decorations. We went exploring in the woods and all sat around the campfire to sing songs and try a toasted marshmallow.

History Week and Remembrance 2019

11th November 2019F Frazer

It has been history week in school. Children in year 1 have been learning about World War 1 and Year 2 have been learning about World War 2. All children in school have been remembering those who have fought and died in both world wars and more recent conflicts. To mark remembrance 2019, today on Armistice day, some children went to the West Park Cenotaph to represent our school in paying our respects. We held a two minute silence in school and all classes have made a class poppy wreath. This afternoon we held a very special assembly. We talked about why we remember and each class presented their wreath very respectfully. The wreaths are very beautiful and will be proudly displayed so that we can continue to remember.

At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them.

Armistice Day 2019

11th November 2019F Frazer

This morning we took a group of representatives form our school to the cenotaph in the West Park to pay our respects to those who have fought and lost their lives in wars of the past and more recent conflicts. The children who came along were brilliant role models for our school. Their behaviour and respectfulness were exemplary.

We were joined by children form other schools, veterans who served our country, the Mayor, members of other uniformed services and of course members of the public. It was a lovely service led by Father Mervyn.

Biddick Hall Infant and Nursery School remembers…

Lest we forget.
