Posted on: 9/12/2022A Message from Mr MortonIt has been a delightful term here at Buckland St Mary C of E Primary School. The children have been engaged in lots of amazing activities and celebrations that have enriched our lives and lifted our spirits. Our art exhibition was a triumph and all of the fantastic art that was created demonstrated the talents of our children and their ability to see the world through a variety of lenses. The artwork and poetry created for our Remembrance Service tastefully celebrated the lives of those who gave so much for us and adorned our monument until they faded into the earth. On Wednesday this week Callum P, Emily T and Poppy G represented our school at the first Trust Public Speaking Competition. The topic was 'Can children make a difference to our environment?'. The team has been working for the last few weeks to formulate their presentation and then to practise public speaking. They represented our school with confidence and articulated their points like professionals. They spoke passionately about how children can make a difference and should always challenge what they know to be wrong or that can be done better. We are very proud of them. Thank you to all those who were able to join us for our 'Carols by candlelight' gathering on the playground this week. The children were heartwarming and the brass band made it even more christmassy than one would think possible (cheesy Christmas jokes aside!). A great night was had by all. Followed by a delightful Christingle service in our beautiful church the next morning. What a talented bunch of musicians we have at our school. Have a wonderful break and a joyful celebration. We look forward to welcoming you all back on Wednesday 4th January 2023. Steve Morton Executive Head of SchoolCategories: 1 CategorySchool News
