What a magical month it has been here at #TeamOcklynge! 🎄✨ We’ve loved celebrating the festive season together with so many wonderful activities across our school: 🎶 Christmas concerts and choir performances in local churches, spreading joy to our community. 🎵 Carol assemblies in school, where parents joined us for some festive singing. 🎨 Christmas classroom activities woven into our core learning, adding creativity and sparkle. 🍽️ Christmas lunches and our ever-popular Christmas Jumper Day, complete with staff carols and plenty of laughter. 🎭 And yes… even the wretched #Grinch made an appearance, bringing fun and excitement for all (also known as Mr Clay, #Class6C - Ssshhh, don't tell the children!). We’ve worked hard to make sure every child feels included in the festivities, enjoys a sense of community, and experiences a little Christmas magic at school. 🎄✨ A huge shout-out to our amazing children for their exceptional behaviour, kindness and continued focus on learning throughout this busy month. We are so proud of you all! 🤩 A big THANK YOU to our incredible staff, from SLT, Teachers, TAs, Lunch Time Supervisors, #PlayTeam, IT extrodinarie, office ladies and site team – each and every one of you - THANK YOU for your dedication, creativity and for keeping the fun alive while ensuring learning never stopped. 📢 Mr Reilly, Headteacher, said: "December at Ocklynge is always special and this year has been no exception. I’m so proud of our children for their kindness and enthusiasm, and grateful to our staff for making every moment count. Together, we’ve created memories that will last well beyond Christmas. I wish all of the children and staff a wonderful Christmas and break, ready to come together again in 2026!" What a way to end 2025!
