Spring term ended with Easter celebrations which included a seasonal assembly led by local vicar Rev Tim Davis from Christ Church and decorated hat and egg competitions.

Pupils have been learning about the Easter story in lessons this week and this theme was continued during the special assembly – which had to be held in school rather than church due to the traffic chaos around Rugby on Friday morning.

Pupils from all year groups sang a selection of Easter and springtime songs which they have been learning in recent weeks. There were also presentations and prayers written by the children.

Later we held our first-ever Easter craft competition. The standard of entries was very high and it was very difficult for Rev Davis to select winners in the decorated hat and decorated egg categories.

There were prizes for all pupils who took part. The winners were presented with a chocolate egg. They are:

Nursery (am): Annabelle and Darcie

Nursery (pm): Alfie

Red: Hayden and Emma

Yellow: Maddy and Millie

Green: Bailey and Max

Silver: Panna and Arthur

Gold: Coby and Noah

Purple: Jude and Jamie

Orange: Dulcie and Lexi

Bronze: Emma

Turquoise: no entries

Head teacher Mr Moorcroft wished all children a happy and safe Easter holiday. He reminded them to be safe when they are out and about and not to make themselves ill by eating too much chocolate!
