• Years 5 and 6 Christmas Concert Service at Holy Trinity Church

  Mon 15 Dec 2025

  Our Year 5 and Year 6 pupils took part in a truly special Christmas Concert Service at Holy Trinity Church, Stratford-upon-Avon, filling the church with music, warmth and festive spirit. Through thoughtful readings, songs and carols, the children shared the meaning of Christmas with confidence and pride.

• Christmas tree decoration competition & Holy Trinity Christmas Post

  Mon 15 Dec 2025

  Dear Parents and Carers

   

  As we approach the most wonderful time of the year, we would like to give children the opportunity to help decorate our school Christmas trees. This will be in the form of a design and make a tree decoration competition.

   

  Our school Christmas tree in the hall will be present from Monday 1st December. Children may bring in their entries from this date, with the final day for entries being Monday 15th December. Each morning, the children will have the opportunity to hang their entry on the tree for the rest of the class/school to admire. During the final week of term, an esteemed panel of judges will then choose a selection of winners from a range of year groups.

   

  An entry contribution of 50p would be most helpful to cover the cost of the prizes awarded.

   

  Furthermore, from 1st December the Holy Trinity Postal Service

  will be back in operation. Children may post Christmas cards to

  friends and members of staff, which will then get hand delivered

  by our Y6 pupils. Please ensure that both NAME & CLASS is included

  on the envelope. Without this information, it is unlikely to reach

  its intended destination.

   

  Best wishes and season’s greetings

   

  Mr J Shuker

  Deputy Head teacher & Head Judge!
