It’s Christmas time at Kings Rise Academy, and we are feeling festive! December is always a magical month at our school, and KRA in the snow definitely set the mood this year. There are so many fun activities happening, and the excitement is in the air!
To start off the month, Scroogical the Musical came and performed at our school, and it was absolutely amazing! Both staff and children were captivated by the show and loved every minute of it. The energy and joy it brought to our school were unforgettable.
One of the highlights of the year is Christmas Dinner Day! It’s a special time when we all sit down together to enjoy a festive lunch with crackers, jokes, and Christmas music filling the air.
Then, on Tuesday, 12 December, it’s time for our much-anticipated Christmas Fayre. There will be games, prizes, treats, and lots of fun stalls. It’s a wonderful opportunity to get into the Christmas spirit while spending time with friends and family.
We’re also looking forward to our Christmas discos, which are always a hit! KS1 will have theirs first and KS2 will get to dance and celebrate a little later. With so many exciting events, there’s truly something for everyone this festive season.
From all of us at Kings Rise, we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Thank you for making this year so special for our school community.
We can’t wait to see all the exciting things 2025 has in store!
