On Thursday 12^th January 2023, some of our children attended a Penathlon event at the Grantham Meres.

A great time was had by all as they took part in a variety of different sporting events. Each child was awarded a medal and certificate for taking part. Well done!

What an absolutely fantastic evening tonight for Carols by Candlelight. Yet again, the children amazed us with their musical talent and it was great to see so many smiling faces!  A special shout out to the amazing soloists (both singers and musicians) for their courage - you blew us all away!

A huge thank you to all of the staff that volunteered their time this evening and all the parents and community that came to support our St Sebastian’s family.

Our choir blew away the staff and residents at Gregory House Care Home today with their beautiful Christmas carols.

Well done everyone - you were amazing!!

The children took part in a ‘decorate a snowflake’ competition for Maple Leaf Lodge nursing home this term. Three of our children were placed first, second and third out of the four schools that entered. They were each presented with a selection box. Well done!

In light of the recent tragedies in the news please follow the link and share with your children the RLSS advice on water safety in winter.

Children will return to school after the service ready to be collected as usual.

We hope to see many of you there.

Please find attached an information leaflet for parents and carers with regards to Strep A. Please be assured that this leaflet is for information only and that we have not had any confirmed cases in school.

This year our Save the Children Christmas Jumper Day will take place on Friday 9th December.

We will also be taking part in a 'Santa Dash' on this day, where classes will take turns to run various routes in the playground listening to Christmas music, and taking part in challenges set by our 'Reindeers'.

This will be a non uniform day but we would encourage all children to wear a Christmas Jumper for a small donation to show support for 'Save the Children'

As we will be running outside, could children please wear comfortable clothes and trainers
