Jingle Bells by Year 3

Here's Year 3 singing the English version of Jingle Bells. Partners in the other schools have done the same in their own languages! You can check out their blogs if you want to learn it in Spanish, Italian, Polish or Turkish.

Here are the lyrics in case you want to sing along with them.
Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bobtail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight!
(chorus)
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way;
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
Now the ground is white
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls tonight
and sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bobtailed bay
Two forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack! you'll take the lead.
|: chorus :|

Making Christmas Cards to send to our Partners

We have been busy making Christmas Cards for our Comenius Partners. Nursery and Year 3 are writing to Poland; Reception and Year 4 to Turkey; Year 1 and Year 5 to Italy; Year 2 and Year 6 chose Spain.

Here's Year 3 making theirs. They have used paints, sequins, pastels, colouring pencils and much more to create a collage for their cards. They had lots of fun making them!



We will be sending our cards next week and can't wait to get their cards through the post! Hurry up Mr Postman!

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer

Listen and see our Year 3 class singing Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.


What do you think of their singing?

At St. Faith's we are starting to get really busy with Christmas Activities. Displays and Christmas Cards are being done, the KS1 Nativity Play is being rehearsed, we're getting ready for our joint Carol Service with St. Anne's school and so much more.


Here's a link about Christmas Traditions in the UK.

Comenius Corner

We have created a Comenius Corner at school in the atrium on the way to the Lunch, PE and Collective Worship Hall. There you will find the latest work done by our children and sent by our partner schools.



In November we are focusing on Personal Health. We will be talking about Healthy Eating and Healthy Packed Lunches. We will send some information home at the end of it so that parents can help us become as healthy as possible.

In December we will be sending Christmas Cards to each other and exchanging some typical recipes.

We can't wait to show you everything!
