A Clifford Christmas

 

I absolutely loved our Clifford Christmas music assembly this year. Every class performed their favourite song: Reception rocked a ‘Christmas Calypso’, Y1 sang the most delightful ‘Rudolph’ and Y2 sang beautifully “Love Shone Down”, thanks to Mrs Brown on the piano.

Rose and Alex performed Jingle Bells and Jolly Old St Nicholas on the piano then Y2 finished with “Ding Dong Merrily” on handbells, piano, guitar, recorder and violin (I would still love a video clip of this!)
