To finish the Autumn Term, Year 2 have taken part in a Christmas service.

We have spent time over the term learning carols to sing. We have appraised and listened to the music, tune and words. We have talked about how calming some carols are such as Away in a Manger and how soft these songs are. The music is slow and gentle and it made us feel relaxed.

We practised these songs before we performed to an audience.

As part of our Christmas Service we also re-told the story of Mary and Joseph and their journey to Bethlehem for Jesus’ birth.

We each told a piece of the story to recount how Gabriel had appeared to Mary before Their Journey to Bethlehem and how the Shepherds and Wise Men followed a star to find a stable with Jesus.

We were very excited as we had a special visitor to watch our performance. The Vicar from St Nicholas Church came to watch us and led us in prayer to remember Jesus.
