Our newly formed Rock Choir has been a huge success! We have had lots of fun singing a wide range of musical styles from Disney to Imagine Dragons. We ended the term with a ‘Finish the Lyrics’ competition …. it was a draw between Years 5 and 6 (although Mrs Harris is convinced that she won!).

This Week

As today we break up for the Easter holiday, we pray that the joy of Easter will be in our homes and in our hearts as we celebrate the resurrection of Christ our Lord.

After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary

Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men. The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.’

Easter Holiday Activities

We still have availability for Easter!

Have a look on our online site to book your spaces now!

Roxy, Wizard and Oliver had physio treatments last Saturday and found it very relaxing! The saddler also came last Friday to have a look at the horses’ saddles and made some changes, so the horses should be a lot more comfortable in lessons.

We are all looking forward to the Easter break so the ponies can have a bit of a rest, but there are Pony Days and lessons still running.

The horse of the week is Oliver!
