Infants' Easter Celebration


To celebrate Easter, Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 will be singing some Easter songs in church.  The mini-production will be taking place on Wednesday 1st April and will begin at approximately 2.00pm. 






The performance is for children to listen and enjoy but we would like to welcome any parents, relatives and friends along. 







Please keep the front two benches on the centre aisle free as well as the benches on either side of the altar as this is where the children will be sitting. 







We hope you can join us in our celebrations.

Poems for Choral Speaking Festival

Here are the poems that we will be performing at the Oldham School's Choral Speaking Festival:



You Are Special by Chris Bambrough

You are more special than a sunrise
Or a mountain covered in snow;
You’re more special than
the most important secret you could know.

You’re more special than the winning goal
In the last minute of the match,
More wonderful than a winning serve
Or a fielder’s diving catch.

You’re more fantastic than a musical
That makes the whole world sing;
More special than a chocolate cake
With double-chocolate icing.

You’re more important than the last panda
Or gorilla left on Earth,
Than an eagle or a peacock;
Just see how much you’re worth.

You are more beautiful than emeralds
More wonderful than gold,
You’re more special than
the most exciting story ever told.

You’re not an accident or a burden
Or a terrible mistake;
You’re special,
You’re original,
You’re the best thing God could make.
 
 


Who’s Baddest? By Kate Umansky

Wolf  One:
Hello, fans.  I’m the Big Bad Wolf
Of Little Piggies fame.
What’s that? You want my autograph?
Most certainly.  Your name?

Wolf Two:
Excuse me. I’m the Big Bad Wolf
Who tricked Red Riding Hood.
This wolf is an imposter!
My friends, this wolf is good.

Wolf One:
How dare you. I’m the Big Bad Wolf
No matter what you say.
Be off, before I huff and puff
And blow you clean away.

Wolf Two:
Aha!  And so it’s come to blows!
This wolf is really sad.
I’ll go and eat his granny up
And then we’ll see who’s bad.


Huff, puff...
Gobble, gobble...
Huff, puff...
Gobble, gobble...
Huff, puff...
Gobble, gobble...

Both:
Then we’ll see who’s bad!

Lillie-Mai's 5 Sentence Challenge



Quietly the little girl knocked on the door with a rat-ta-tat-tat. She was very surprised at who answered it. It was a beautiful fairy named Taylia. She had big green eyes, long blonde hair, a cute button nose and a little body no bigger than my hand. I asked her if I could come in her fairy tree home, she told me she would have to sprinkle me with fairy dust to make me small. So she did and we had a fantastic day until I had to go home.
