On 29th January the Marsghate choir took part in the fantastic Young Voices event at the O2 Arena.  It was an amazing evening with the children and staff singing the songs they have learnt in the choir.  Do take a look at the photos on the photo gallery.  Thanks to Miss Fuller and Miss McClenning for organising the event and teaching the choir all the songs.  Thanks too to Mr Mollett and Mr Smith for coming to the event.

Thanks to Miss Gray and Mrs Edwards for organising our Harvest Festival this year.  Our guests enjoyed an assembly by the children and listened to our String Ensemble.  Thanks too to the parents who brought in food for the tea.  Our Harvest table is bulging with goodies, thank you to everyone for bringing in the food which is being donated to local charity Spear.

Congratulations to all of the children and parents who climbed Mount Snowdon in July.

Despite this feat of endurance being carried out in extreme conditions of 30 plus degrees and at a fast pace, the children still had enough energy to play 'it' at the bottom - well done to you all!
