Easter Service

It was wonderful to be able to return to St Peter’s Church for our Easter service. Thank you to Rev Jonathan and Emma Dowman for leading the worship and to all the children who were involved in readings.

Easter Play

It was a pleasure to see the pupils in years three, four and five perform Good News, their Easter Play. All of the children should be proud of the performances, thank you to all the staff who have worked so hard to prepare and support the children.

Easter Activities

One of the children’s favourite Church Langton traditions is the Easter activity mornings. All of the classes were mixed up and the older children then assisted the younger pupils with the craft activities. This was followed in the afternoon with the Friends of Church Langton Easter Egg hunt which was enjoyed by all of the classes as they charged around the field finding the clues. Thank you to the staff and volunteers who helped to make it such an exciting day.

Children from years four, five and six took part in a dance festival held at Robert Smyth Academy this week. They were given a forty-five minute challenge to prepare a dance to then perform to an audience of parents and teachers. Miss Parker was very proud of their superb group effort.

Well done to the maths team who represented our school in a competition which we hosted at the Langton Community Hall this week. The team enjoyed taking on different challenges and competing against children from four other local schools. Thank you to Foxton Primary School for organising the event and to Mrs Russell for helping to run the afternoon.

We were proud to support National Down’s Syndrome Day. Thank you to everyone who wore odd socks and to Mr Ferguson for leading our assembly. We raised a total of £65.00 which will be donated to Ups N Downs, a local charity who support young people with Downs Syndrome and their families.
