Christmas Production - Costume!

The Key Stage 2 Christmas production this year is called "A Very Rise Park Christmas Carol", and is our spin on the traditional Dickens tale. However, our Scrooge is a rather grumpy primary school teacher [not based on Mr. Shadbolt] who is taught the true meaning of Christmas by two visiting ghosts.

Thank you for helping your children practise the words to the two songs that year four are singing; Santa Claus is Coming to Town and The Twelve Days of Christmas. Both classes sound fantastic, and all the children are trying their very best to raise the roof with their amazing singing.

We would like all of the children to wear party clothes for the performances, and these will need to be in school for Friday 16th December, or the morning of Monday 19th December at the very latest. We think party clothes should be the same sort of outfit that you would send your child in to the school Christmas disco, or that you would send them in to a birthday party. Pretty dresses... smart shirts... but no fancy-dress, please - we don't want any Buzz Lightyears or Princesses on-stage.

Look forward to seeing you all at the performances.
