Christmas Concerts
A big thank you to all parents / carers who came along to support the children’s Christmas concerts this week. I am sure you will agree with me that all of the children sang brilliantly and read and acted like professionals. We hope that you enjoyed watching the concerts as much as we did. Well done to all pupils and staff involved.
Thank you for your generosity both at our concerts and during farm visits, we have collected a staggering £1102 which we are going to put towards the running cost of our wonderful farm. Thank you- I can’ even begin to tell you how impressed I am with the Harold Hill community spirit.
