Oink! Dress Rehearsal

A huge well done to our Year 3 and 4 children who performed exceptionally well in their dress rehearsal today. It was incredible to see how much acting and singing talent we have in Kelsale along with such confident children who brought Oink! to life. The children and staff watching in the audience were laughing along at the many puns and thoroughly enjoyed the performance! Mr Moss and I know that you will be just as brilliant in the two remaining performances.

Troubled Notes Band

In Collective Worship this afternoon, we were lucky enough to receive a mini concert from a German band: The Trouble Notes. They describe themselves as an "Acoustic Dance Music" band, which is a unique blend of the genre that sits at the crossroads of the raw energy and organic instrumentation of Folk music and the modern sounds of contemporary rock, roots music, and new-age electronica. 

The children absolutely loved listening and engaging with their music and were inspired as the musicians reinforced that they could be anything that they dreamed of.

Follow the Ship - Year 3+4 Trip

Thank you to all of the staff and volunteers at: the Tide Mill Museum, Woodbridge Museum and The Sutton Hoo Ship's Company for our fantastic "Follow The Ship" trip for Year 3 and 4. 

Our day was jam-packed full of many exciting activities as we were able to: explore the Tide Mill and Woodbridge Museum; see the recreation of the Longship being built; have a go at some riveting; create our own brooches; and be archaeologists by excavating!

Thank you and well done to the children for representing Kelsale so well! Also, thank you to Mr Moss for organising the trip and to Miss Kendrick for volunteering to help out.

Here are the websites for the places that we visited. They are open to the public and the children would love the opportunity to show you around!

Christingle Service 2022

Well done to all of our children for behaving so sensibly with their Christingles this afternoon. It was a shame that we were unable to walk to the church for our service due to the weather conditions but we adapted and made our school hall look beautiful instead. Thank you to Rev D for leading a wonderful Christingle service!

Santa Fun Run

A huge well done to all of our children and a massive thank you to all of you who came to support today's Santa Fun Run! It was incredible to see so many people running and enjoying themselves, with so many smiles and laughs out on our field. Both KS1 and KS2 had so many supporters which we, and the children, absolutely appreciate. Long may the Daily Mile continue! Also, many thanks for all of your 50p entries; we have raised enough money to cover the cost of our backdrop - hooray!

Football Tournament @ AVA

Congratulations to our Year 5 and 6 boys who competed in the Football tournament at Alde Valley Academy yesterday! Their team work and collaboration was fantastic, as well as their sportsmanship, as they faced tough competition. However, this did not phase our children as they did not concede a single game which meant they won the tournament! Thank you to Alde Valley for hosting, Mrs Ridgeon for accompanying them, and Mr Skeggs and Mrs Godbold for your football teaching contribution.
