EYFS and Primary Phase – A Magical Christmas Performance!

Families were treated to a truly outstanding performance of The First Christmas. This joyful production gave every child the opportunity to sing, sign, dance and shine, and it was a celebration filled with confidence, creativity and festive spirit.

Green Class opened the show with a beautiful and expressive rendition of Little Donkey, followed by an energetic performance of Knock Knock, complete with tap sticks to add rhythm and excitement. EYFS then took to the stage, with Gold Class delighting the audience as they danced to Baa Baa Boogie, sparkling in festive tinsel.

The Christmas story continued with Rainbow Class, who performed a joyful and lively version of Run Run Shepherds!, supported brilliantly by their class team. Red Class then lit up the stage with a stunning star-themed dance to Sparkle and Shine, bringing both energy and elegance to their performance. To close the show, Indigo and Yellow Classes delivered a spectacular wheelchair dance to Boogie Woogie Angels, earning well-deserved applause from the audience.

The performance ended on a heartwarming note as the whole phase came together to sing and sign Happy Birthday to Baby Jesus. It was a truly magical celebration, enjoyed by all who attended.
