End of Term Announcements!

Special assemblies... time to share...

We have had some special gatherings during these final two days of the Autumn term.

Our open air concert proved enjoyable for all those who attended and the children (and staff) also were able to enjoy the final school assembly of 2017 in which a number of important awards were given out.

We really wanted to make sure the open air concert could go ahead. Whilst the flurry of snow meant we could not go ahead with the show last week, the children were able to share some Christmas readings as well as some festive songs on the final Monday of the term. As the photos below show, it certainly attracted the crowds to the playground. Drinks and snacks provided by the Friends of Tudor were popular and I am sure that the parents appreciated the spectacle of the children and staff singing... well maybe just the vocal talents of the children...

The sun setting really added to the atmosphere:

Tuesday's assembly was a little different. It was an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of the children and this included the handing out of the Autumn 2017 Headteacher Awards.

Headteacher Awards- A Celebration of Success

The Headteacher Awards at Tudor are something very special. Children who receive the award are invited to sit on the prestigious 'Tudor Thrones' whilst their teacher tells the whole school how amazing they are and why they have been chosen. Their names are then added to the Tudor 'Roll of Honour' which will be forever part of our website.

If you would like to to see who has been addded to our 'Roll of Honour' , follow this link. 

Attendance Awards were also given out- 97 children in our school did not miss a single session of school during the whole of September, October, November and December- a huge well done to all of these children!

Mrs Donley also introduced some new attendance certificates and these were for children who have improved a great deal on their attendance from the same period last year. Some of these children have improved their attendance by over 10% and some even made it to 100% attendance- now that is impressive. 

The children also enjoyed a special game show- it was called 'So you think you know Tudor?'. Our new members of staff had to work out which members of staff had special facts or talents. Miss Grundy and Miss McKenzie were joint winners leaving poor Mr Higgins in last place. Mind you, it was tough to know which teachers have been in some 'different jobs' before choosing to  be teachers. Did you know the Tudor staff contains people who have been:

film extras, prison workers, sports champions, people who have auditioned for famous bands amongst other things!

To conclude this final web update for the term, I would like to wish all of you a fun, safe and enjoyable holiday and I hope you all have a wonderful new year...

See you all in 2018! Term starts for children on Thursday 4th January.
