Today, children at Waddesdon Village Primary School took part in a Christmas Round Robin. This involved children exploring every classroom to take part in different Christmas activities; from singing carols to making baubles.

Please see the gallery for pictures.

On the afternoon of Monday 14th December, Class 3 performed a mini violin concert to parents. They were able to show off months of hard work by playing 4 songs. They have made excellent progress this term and are now able to use the bow effectively.

They are already looking forward to next term, when they will begin to play the recorder!

With your help and support we raised £1370!!!

A big thank you for all your help, support and for attending this event.

This year, as a whole school, we are watching the BBC 'Ten Pieces' DVDs in our assemblies.   Ten Pieces Primary aims to open up the world of classical music to children and inspire them to develop their own creative responses to ten pieces of music through composition, dance or art.  So far this year, class six have created their own compositions based on the minimalist music of John Adam's 'Short Ride in a Fast Machine'; class four have produced art based on 'In the Hall of the Mountain King' from Grieg's Peer Gynt; and class five have complemented their Big Writing with some wonderful black and white chalk work based on 'Storm' from Peter Grimes, by Benjamin Britten. Do take a look at the Gallery! 

On Tuesday 1st December, Class R visited the secondary school library. We had prepared questions about transport. Then a Year 7 class used books and computers to answer them. We then made this into a book to keep in our Reading Corner.

On 25th November every classroom in Waddesdon Village Primary School turned off all of the electricity in the school. Class 6 went to the power room to see how the power in school worked. Class 5 did some art work on a lighthouse. Class 4 and Class R worked together to make windmills. Class 3 made posters on how to save electricity and found some amazing facts! Class 2 went outside and made pictures and Class 1 did a normal Maths lesson but they were in the dark!

We saved a lot of electricity!
