All Millfield children thoroughly enjoyed their pantomime experiences this week. KS1 and 2 children were an absolute delight to take to the Spotlight Theatre. Theatre staff commented on their amazing behaviour and how proud we must be of every single child – we certainly are!
The Early Years pantomime, Search for Santa, was a big hit. Children sang along to songs and had great fun!
It was lovely to see Millfield children and their families at St Mary’s Church in Aspenden. Millfield’s tree looked fabulous amongst 26 other very well decorated Christmas trees. The vicar was very complementary about our tree. Our theme was ‘All Things Millfield’ and included a decorated bauble from every class, cogs to celebrate how we work together and photographs to represent our lovely school.

It was wonderful for Millfield to be welcomed into St Peters Church this week for the Reception children to perform their Nativity shows to parents and carers. A huge congratulations to all the children, they performed with such enthusiasm and pride. We were so proud of every child, the children impressed us all with their wonderful singing and acting skills.
KS1 and 2 children thoroughly enjoyed watching Reception children perform their Nativity to them on Thursday. It was wonderful to see how proud the older children were of their younger peers.
The Friendship ladder Christmas craft activities were a big hit! It's clear the children had a fantastic time working with a range of children from across the school to explore and create Christmas decorations.
Thank you to all parents who attended the Nursery Stay and Plays this week. It was lovely to welcome you into our school and see you spending time with your child.
