Christmas Big Sing
On Wednesday 5th December, Year Five and Six pupils from St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School took part in Durham Music Services ‘Christmas Big Sing’ event. They joined together with other schools in St. Cuthbert’s Chapel at Ushaw College to celebrate the joy of group singing. The children performed with a live band and used their voices and percussion instruments to celebrate Christmas in song. They even had the opportunity to perform some songs using sign language. One of the pupils, Elise, stated, “I loved singing and learning all the songs. My favourite one was Snowman by Sia where we did sign language.” It was an experience the children will never forget. What a great way to spread some Christmas cheer!
Advent Outreach
St. Joseph’s Catholic Primary School is working together with St. Mary’s Catholic Primary School and St. Mary’s Church to collect toys, books and other gifts that are in good condition which could be given to those in need within our community. Donations would be greatly appreciated; these can be dropped off at either school or the church.
