Christmas 2025

Christmas 2025

We have had so much to enjoy in this festive season.

Christmas Dinner & Christmas Jumper Day

Wednesday 9th December was Christmas Jumper and most importantly, Christmas Dinner Day. Our kitchen staff at both Church Lane and Rectory Gardens outdid themselves to create an absolute feast – in the words of one of the children “It came from the heavens”

Choir to Alexandra Palace

Also on Wednesday 10th, Mrs Peacock, Mme Williamson, Mr Walker and some kind parents walked the choir up to Alexandra Palace to take part in a festival of songs with lots of other primary schools. Our children performed brilliantly, with a very tricky piece, and everyone was very impressed. The children made us so proud, with their confidence, as our choir is quite small, compared to some other schools. If you would like your Rectory Gardens child to join choir in January, please get in touch as there are still some places available. Ally Pally will also be the new home of the Haringey Music Service, which is exciting news (they briefly were based at Rectory Gardens) and this is a link to their press release (you can see our children if you look hard enough, in the last photo) Haringey Music Service – A New Home

Violin Assembly

On Tuesday 9th December, it was the turn of our second music concert and we enjoyed the violins, again showing how much a class can learn in one term. Thank you to Mary and Stephen, the violin teachers.

Church Lane Enjoy The Puppet Nativity at Holy Innocents

On Monday 8th December, Church Lane went to Holy Innocents Church to see the puppet Nativity which is always a great treat, and really sets the mood for the season

Our Wonderful Christmas Fair

Friday 5th December was our Christmas Fair this year and it had such a lovely atmosphere. So nice to see familiar faces from years gone by as well as new families, all enjoying the traditional things the fair has to offer, and so good of Santa to stop by. Thank you to the PSA for organising this

Trumpets & Trombones Concert

On Thursday 4th December we had the first of our music concerts, starting with the trumpets and trombones. It’s amazing to see the progress made in one term by Crimson class, and we were impressed with our continuers too. Thank you to Clara and Ben, our music teachers.

Church Lane Visit the Ice Panto at Alexandra Palace

Church Lane had a wonderful trip to Alexandra Palace to see Sleeping Beauty on Ice

Church Lane Learn About Christingle

Church Lane children enjoyed their Christingle workshop at Holy Innocents Church with Fthr Ben and learnt what Christingle  means in the story of Jesus and Christmas

Our Hugely Special Advent Assembly

It all started with our Advent Assemby, where we all came together and the youngest and oldest child in the school turned on the Christmas tree lights. It is always a magical moment.
