Happy holidays

Hi everyone,
A huge congratulations to you all, I heard speech morning was amazing!

Thank you for all your lovely cards, well wishes and presents. I feel very overwhelmed by all the kindness you have all shown.

We are doing really well and are home now. I wanted to share a pic of Kees with you all as promised. He was born 3.32pm Wed, 3.8kg and 51cm long.

Have a fabulous holiday and Christmas!

Christmas Party

Thank you so much to all the boys and parents who came to our Christmas Class Party today. The present that I received was unbelievably gorgeous and I will treasure it forever.

I hope you all have a wonderful end to the year and hopefully I will be able to see you at Speech Morning (fingers crossed)! I will also try to put a picture of our little boy up here on the blog when he arrives for the boys to be able to see.

Merry Christmas!

From Mrs Geelhoed

Speech Morning Poem

For those boys who have had trouble accessing the poem for speech morning I have copied and pasted it below. No excuses boys!!!!

6 LG Pre Primary Poem

If you go down to the school today

You’re in for a big surprise,

Mums and dads with their bright young son

Few with some tears in their eyes.

For every prep there ever there was,

Is gathered here together because,

Today’s the day, the Pre Primaries

Go to Christ Church.

Nap time for everyone,

We’ve all had so much fun, chasing each other we love to run.

Watch us walking hand in hand,

And by the end of lunch our shoes are always full of sand (sorry mum!)

Asking questions all day long,

We learn things best when they are simple and in song!.

Ten to three their mummies and daddies will

Take their home to bed,

Because their tired little Pre- Primaries.

Instrumental solo- boys play/act

Every boy in the class will try,

His very best to do well,

Cutting and glueing and letter and more,

We even learn how to spell!

For each of us, we love this great place,

We learn and laugh a smile on our face,

Today's the day the pre primaries say “THANKS” to Christ Church.
