Due to Covid, and the current guidelines, the school were unable to put on all of the usual Christmas activities this year, which was a real shame.  So Aaron has missed out on his Christmas meal at school and his carol service.  🙁

Instead of the Christmas meal, each of those in KS2 were given a mince pie and a drink – fantastic!  The reasoning behind them not having a proper Christmas meal was that they don’t now eat in the hall, but at their desk in their classrooms instead.  Surely it wouldn’t have been too difficult for the children to eat their meal at their desk in the classroom!!!  Unfortunately, it seems like another ‘easy way out’ option that the school has taken, but it is a real shame for all of the children.  Aaron loves his Christmas meal!! haha

Instead of the carol service, the school did actually do something else though!!  They gave each class a carol (or part of a carol) to sing and they were recorded doing it.  The video was then put together and sent out to all parents, so at least they did something!!

Last night was Aaron’s first KS2 Carol Service at School. We managed to sit on the 2nd row just in front of him, so could see him throughout! This did make him a little nervous! haha. He sang a little bit and yawned through some songs (as usual!) but he seemed to enjoy it enough. It was hot in there so we could see him getting a bit hot as well, which probably contributed to the yawning. His class sang 1 song on their own and then others with the other classes and audience. It was quite nice and Christmassy!
