Huge congratulations to all the children who have taken part in Hilldene's Christmas concerts over the past few weeks. From Nursery to Year 6, all the children performed beautifully. With great pride and confidence, the children enthusiastically entertained special guests - the Mayor, Mayoress and Deputy Mayor and her Consort (one at each of the performances) as well as all their families and friends.
The youngest members of our school community,
the Nursery and Reception children, hosted a festive nativity sing a
long for their parents and carers, using technology creatively to retell
the nativity.
Children in Years 1 and 2 thoroughly
enjoyed performing their Christmas Concert - 'Prickly Hay' to their
families. With a stable hoe down, singing and dancing, the audiences were
completely thrilled by the production.
Children in Years 3 and 4 found themselves in a
courtroom in the middle of Bethlehem for their production of 'Straw and Order'.
With bickering innkeepers, self-important wise men, cool shepherds, some
dancing sheep and a spectacular angel choir, peace and love overruled!
An amazing carol concert from children in Years
5 and 6 finally brought the house down with their search for the colour of
Christmas. With soulful singing, dynamic dancing, beautifully clear
narration and talented flautists, the rousing performance was thoroughly
enjoyed by all.
Thank you to all the staff (who have worked
incredibly hard on scripts, costumes, backdrops, technology, props and
production) for their unwavering determination and patience and to the
parents for your fantastic support, which is greatly appreciated!
Finally, an enormous 'Well done!' to all the
fantastic children...we are very proud of you!
