Queen's Platinum Jubilee Party

What a wonderful day! The children all thoroughly enjoyed themselves as well as learning a great deal about Queen Elizabeth II and the significance of the Platinum Jubilee. Just look at some of the amazing photos we have from the day!

The children have enjoyed the RE sessions led by Reverend Kelly and members of the St Nicolas Church Parish. The sessions explored the Holy Trinity, and how Christians believe that God is revealed to them in three ways – God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit – yet remains one God. 

They explained how Jesus taking a human form helped us understand who God is and what is important to him as no one had ever seen God. They talked about Jesus’ life and teachings and how they reflected how God wanted us all to live our lives. They also taught the children the Trinity Song.

The Royal British Legion would like to say thank you for supporting their Poppy Appeal. We raised £213.49.

Marcus Jones visited St Nicolas School to meet with the School Councillors. The children asked questions about his job and what he did. Marcus explained how many years he had worked as an MP for, and how he enjoyed his job. They also asked him questions about our school and what we could do to improve it.

Our children decided to make Christmas Cards for the residents of Allambie Court Care Home to provide some festive cheer during these difficult times.

Year 1 made Easter cards for the residents of Long Lea Care Home. They were thrilled to receive them

Our Year 1 children visited the residents of Long Lea Care Home to perform a Christmas Carol concert. They enjoyed time after the event chatting with the residents and sharing their hopes for the Christmas period.

We always enter the local Festival of Arts competition and the children do well celebrating first, second and third prizes.

The children of St Nicolas wanted to share some happiness, so they have shared their beautiful 'Winter Art' with members of our community by displaying it at Horeston Grange Co-op.

We would like to say a hug thank you for your kind support and generosity with raising money for the Ukraine. We raised a huge £1268.00. This money is going direct to Unicef.

We are very proud of one of our pupils as she has very kindly donated her hair to the Little Princess Trust. She donated 9 inches of hair to be used to make wigs for children and young people.

Year 3 would like to say a huge thank you to you all for your kind donations. Doorway, the local charity for the homeless, really appreciated your generosity.

The local fire service came to visit Year1. The children really enjoyed learning about how to keep safe If there was a fire in our homes.

We held a non uniform day to raise money for Cancer Research. One of our Mum's, Sarah Johnston, has recently battled thyroid cancer and ran the London marathon to fund raise. Mia and Ethan wanted to show how much they love their Mum by organising the day and raising money for this amazing cause. We chose Valentines Day in particular as it is a day about expressing love. We are so proud to say that together we have raised £616.00 for this amazing cause.
