Well after having Nerys home from school the week before, last week it was Rhys’ turn to be poorly.
There are so many bugs and viruses going round their school at the moment it’s unbelievable. Rhys had a temperature, headache and kept saying he felt dizzy, so he ended up coming home from school early on a few occasions last week.
I’m hoping we’re out of the woods with the bugs now though, as the children have a busy few weeks coming up. They both seemed pretty much back to normal at the weekend and it was lovely to head out to Clyne for a walk and to take a few photos.
The busy Christmas period kicks off this week with Nerys’ school concert, which she is so excited about.
Her year is doing ‘Christmas around the world’ which is what Rhys’ class did a few years ago. She has been practising loads, singing all the songs and telling me what lines she has to say.
Rhys’ concert is the week after and he’s doing ‘Christmas through the decades’ which is new to me and sounds like it’s going to be a lot of fun to watch. Saying that, I already know I’ll be fighting the tears at one stage because they’re singing and signing ‘Hallelujah’.
I always love going to see the children in their Christmas concerts, they put so much time into learning all their songs and their lines and I love seeing how enthusiastic they all are at the performances.
Do your children do a different concert each year like this, or do they tend to stick to the classic nativity play?
Oh gosh, it’s that time of year isn’t it? I hope you’re all feeling better this week! I’m still hoping A and T lose their sniffles by Christmas x
I’m a little sad that we don’t have a play at this school last Reception age. They always make you feel so festive! Glad the germs have gone in time for the Christmas chaos! #livingarrows
I hope the germs have gone! We’ve had a bad run of illness too x
Glad you are all feeling much better. Its the time of year isn’t it? We do have a Christmas assembly lined up which I don’t think is going to be like the nativity, well at least the words Monkey is learning don’t sound like it. Hope the concerts go well x
I hope everyone is feeling better now, we’re fighting off the germs here too. The boys school do a nativity in the infants and a carol concert in the juniors but the nativity is a bit different every year. This year it’s called ‘The Inn-spectors’ and sounds like it’s going to be great from what I’ve heard from them at home. I can’t wait to see it, and this year is the only year Toby and Gabe will be in the nativity together so it will be extra special 🙂
