Christmas in a Day
Today was our traditional Exton and Greetham 'Christmas in a Day'. We started the day by climbing onto a coach to visit the churching Greetham for our Christmas Service. The older children shared the story of the nativity, interspersed with some of our favourite Christmas carols. This included what is now becoming a firm favourite 'sheep, sheep, sheep'; Hark the Herald with the descant for the last verse; and asking all the adults to join in with singing 'The Holly and the Ivy' in canon. Thank you to Mrs Davis' daughter for coming to help play the piano!
We then returned to school for some craft time, before sharing in our Christmas dinner, lovingly cooked by Lizzie. It was delicious!
After lunch Disco Steve joined us for our Christmas Disco. We were very pleased that Father Christmas found time to stop off and drop off some presents during his busy December. We sent him on his way with a round of jingle bells!
