Spring Term message from Mrs Cropper:
Welcome back to an Exciting Spring Term!
Happy New Year! We hope you had a relaxing and enjoyable break, filled with special moments with family and friends. As we step into the Spring term, we have some wonderful opportunities and activities planned, some of these include:
**Let’s Go Sing Performance** – A joyful celebration of music and community spirit! The children have been working hard and we cannot wait to see them shine on stage.
We also want to take this opportunity to remind families about the importance of regular reading. Reading at least **three times a week** is a wonderful way to develop essential skills, spark imagination and build a lifelong love for books. Please support your child by carving out time for reading and encouraging them to explore a variety of stories and topics.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at the door from 8:45am or by leaving a message at the office.
Best wishes,
Mrs Cropper

Let's Go Sing 2024
Posted: Mar 12, 2024 by: year5 teacher (S.Cropper) on: Year 5 Blog
This week, Year 3 & Year 5 had the incredible opportunity to showcase their singing talents at the 'Let's Go Sing' event. It was an evening filled with joy, laughter and beautiful singing.
Our group delivered a stunning rendition of the iconic song 'I'm Still Standing' along with singing 8 other songs. The energy and enthusiasm that our St Thomas’ children displayed on stage was truly commendable. They sang with pride and left some of us in tears!
The event provided a platform for our young singers to experience the thrill of performing in front of a large crowd. It was an invaluable opportunity for them to build confidence and showcase their months of hard work and dedication. The smiles on their faces as they finished their performance were a testament to their sense of achievement.
We are immensely proud of their performance and grateful to have been a part of such a memorable event. Thank you to all our staff and parent helpers that supported the night and an even bigger thank you to those who travelled such a long way to come and see us!
