Children from St Peter’s 2-8 have been performing Christmas shows for family and friends to enjoy at home.
Over 235 children have taken part in five performances over the past two weeks, which have been live-streamed using a special streaming service. The login details were shared with parents who have been able to watch the shows remotely.
Nursery sang a selection of Christmas Singsongs whilst Reception performed Ho Ho Ho What a Show. Year 1 chose an alternative nativity called Prickly Hay whilst Year 2 performed The Nutcracker. The performances concluded with Year 3’s production Lights, Camel, Action, featuring dancing camels and a tango dance between shepherds and their brooms.
Mr Phil Hardy, Head of St Peter’s 2-8, said:
Christmas has most definitely arrived at St Peter’s 2-8. Over the past few weeks, the school has been filled with the glorious sound of children singing Christmas tunes, orchestrated by our fabulous Musical Director, Mrs Hayden. It is so important that the children can feel the magic and wonder of Christmas at school, and at St Peter’s 2-8 we transformed our main hall into a film set allowing children from Nursery to Year 3 to each perform their Christmas show.
All our performances were live streamed allowing parents, grandparents and other family members the opportunity to enjoy these cherished moments from home. I hope they feel this has given them the opportunity to share in some of the joy and magic of Christmas that we have had the pleasure of experiencing these past few weeks at school.
