Blessed with talent
Thank you so much - you made me smile as I came through the hall at the end of assembly today. How lucky we are to hear such lovely talent - thank you.
A beautiful Christingle Service
What a beautiful occasion this evening!
Our SING group sang beautifully at Smalley's annual Christingle Service - what a special moment when all the candles were lit and we sang together.
Thank you to all of our families and friends for their support.
Special Visitors
Last week we welcomed special visitors into school. Members of our “Smalley Old Boys” and representatives from the Richardson Foundation came to school to enjoy lunch in Class 6. They then met children from Year 5 and 6 and enjoyed a presentation, by the children, of our Remembrance service, which was then aired on the BBC news the very next day.
It is always a privilege to watch the children and adults sing ‘Abide with me’ together in our school hall. Welcoming our wider community into school always gives our children a valuable experience and it is greatly appreciated by all of our visitors too.
We Will Remember
November 9th 2018
Today, our children continued to make us so very proud. Our Remembrance Service, led by Year 6, and supported by Key Stage 2 children was just beautiful. The children were so very respectful as they reflected on the soldiers who have lost their lives fighting for the freedom that we have today.
Smalley's Remembrance Service is always a special event in our school year and this was captured by the BBC news team today, who came to film the pride that we have in our past and the hope we have for our future.
Thank you to everyone for your support and dedication, as our community marks 100 years since the end of The First World War.
We will remember them.
