• Christmas party day!

  Fri 16 Dec 2016
  To end the term, the children were treated to party food at lunchtime followed by a Christmas party! Party games were in full flow when a very special visitor arrived to deliver some presents! Very happy (albeit a little weary!) children were all sent home for the holidays full of stories to tell. Merry Christmas and a happy 2017 to you all!

• Pantomime visit to Buxton Opera House

  Wed 14 Dec 2016
  'HE'S BEHIND YOU!!' The whole school was taken to the pantomime to see 'Snow White' this afternoon. The children (and staff!) were all very excited to have front row seats which was an amazing experience! It was a joy to see the children's faces light up with excitement. Madeleine was called up on the stage to try her hand at some yodelling and even Mrs Bond got a special mention! The children were, as always, a pleasure to take out and a wonderful time was had by all.

• African Ark visit

  Tue 13 Dec 2016
  We were very lucky to have an African Ark visit to school today! This links in nicely with the school link we have with a primary school in Kenya. The children took part in a mixture of African art and dance workshops and lots of fun was had by all!

• Chatsworth Farmyard nativity

  Mon 12 Dec 2016
  The children in nursery and reception were taken down to Chatsworth farmyard this afternoon to perform in a special nativity with real animals! Costumes, music and dancing all made for another memorable event for friends and family to enjoy. 

• KS2 Christmas concert

  Thu 08 Dec 2016
  It was singing all the way this evening at the Cavendish Hall in Edensor where the KS2 children performed their Christmas concert on a real stage! The children performed a mixture of traditional carols and some more modern Christmas songs to a packed audience of 170 friends and family! A moving 'signed' performance of 'The Lords Prayer' was highly received by everyone and the children really enjoyed learning all the signs.

• Class 1 and Class 2 nativity

  Wed 07 Dec 2016
  What a truly special and magical evening this was...crowds gathered in St.Peter's church in Edensor to watch the youngest children in school perform their rendition of the nativity. The church was packed with friends and family all there to celebrate the children's achievements. Some of the Y2 children led the readings and prayers and did so with great eloquence. Children as young as two and three all played a part and wore a costume. The atmosphere in church was beautiful and staff and children were all congratulated on delivering such a great performance. Some of the school's governors were also in attendance and were full of praise for all concerned.

• Christmas coffee morning

  Thu 01 Dec 2016
  The school opened it's doors to parents, grandparents, friends and family this morning to join us for a festive coffee and mince pie. After some refreshment, the children entertained their friends and family by showcasing their musical talents. Children played the piano, violin, guitar and even the harp! Our children show such confidence and pleasure in sharing their talents with others, we are very proud of them.

• Class visits to Chatsworth House

  Thu 01 Dec 2016
  All the children in school went on a very special visit to Chatsworth this week to see the Christmas decorations based on 'The Nutcracker'. We were very lucky to be granted special permission by the Duke and Duchess to enter the House before it opened to the general public. The children loved hunting for the mice in each room and a magical time was had by all!
