iSingPOP Intergenerational Project and Concert
Fri 01 Dec 2023We were thrilled to welcome iSingPOP teacher, Jessica into school yesterday, 30th November to lead an Intergenerational Christmas Workshop Day.
It was an opportunity for parents and grandparents to join their child/grandchild for a session of iSingPOP. Everyone learnt songs and dances based around the Christmas story. What a wonderful way for different generations to work together.
Following the workshop day our families will be given the opportunity to perform in the iSingPOP concert forming a choir with Whittington CE Primary School. This will be held at St Mary’s Church on
Tuesday 5th December at 6pm and promises to be a fantastic event. The timetable for the concert day is as follows:

Art Project at St James the Great Church
Fri 15 Sep 2023Art Project
Back in the spring term, Rev Mark asked if NJK would join a steering group to help make St James Church a space for arts and creativity. We are incredibly lucky that a wonderful Christian artist Kay Mason has offered to work with all year groups during this academic year.
Kay has been setting up a 'Create Pray' group for adults at St James and St Mary's over the past year. She has formulated a child-friendly version where each class will be inspired by 'It's a wonderful World' song and lyrics and will create pieces of artwork over a half term.
This project will culminate in a KS1 art exhibition at church in the spring term and a KS2 art exhibition at church in the summer term. Pupils' work will be displayed and mounted by Kay. Parents and children will be invited to attend the art exhibitions.
Each class will also attend church once as part of the input. Dates for the visits are Tuesday afternoons. Not only is this a fantastic art opportunity but the sessions are based on mindfulness and spirituality.
