We said "Au Revoir" to our lovely Madame Burbidge yesterday as she earns a well deserved retirement after many years teaching French at Grove Road. At the assembly she led the children in one last French Christmas sing-a-long. She will be very much missed by the children and teachers... and also by the parents who organised a wonderfully generous present. We send lots of love and thanks and wish Helene well in all there is to come for her and husband Mike, as they enjoy their retirement adventures together.
We wanted to celebrate and showcase some of the Home Learning we have received this half term. It is lovely to see the children consolidating their learning at home, which then has a positive impact on their learning within school.

What a fab day the children have had at their Christmas parties. As always we were so pleased and grateful to have the day run so expertly by Nathan Ing, taking time away from his day job at Radley Aylesbury. It is always such a lovely energetic day and even if the children don't sleep well tonight, their teachers certainly will! Thank you Nathan!
We had some lovely entries for the Christmas Card competition this year. Thank you to FOG for organising this. Here are some of our winning entries. Well done all!
There is an Arts & Craft Market taking place this Saturday 7th Dec 10-3pm at the Victoria Hall in Tring. Ruby from Year 6 will be holding a stall selling her hand made pin badges to raise money for the year 6 leaving party. What a great idea-Good luck Ruby!
