    MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! !This years Christmas infant concert was the story of

    Jungle Book, chosen to fit in with Year 2s work on

    saving and protecting the Rainforest. Reception and

    Year 1 performed the Sleepy Shepherd. This was anew play and the children really enjoyed learning all

    the new songs. A lot of hard work goes into putting

    together a concert to include 180 children60 of

    whom have only been in school a term. They have all

    showed great confidence and we are very proud of

    them. Many thanks has to go to all the teachers and

    teaching assistants who have worked hard to organise

    rehearsals and costumes for everyone. It has certainlyput everyone in the mood for Christmas.

    We would like to wish

    everyone a Happy Christmas

    and best wishes for a peaceful

    and successful 2012.

    Brampton Primary is a restorative school where the initial response to conflict is to

    find a solution where things are put right, the victims needs are met whilst also

    meeting the needs of the wrong doer and meet all the schools responsibilities.

    YEAR 1S TRIP TO SEE SANTA

    Brampton BulletinPage 2

    Last week Year Ones Learning Challenge was How do children in Bexleyheath

    celebrate Christmas? In order to answer this question they went to visit Santa at

    Bexleyheath Broadway Shopping Centre. The children excitedly waited in line for their

    turn to meet Santa and looked at all the Christmas decorations in the shop windows.

    Each child handed Santa their letter and he was very impressed with their writing. He

    asked the children if they had been good this year and of course they said yes! Each

    child was given a gift which they were very eager to open. Santas helper phoned the

    school later in the day to thank Year One for their outstanding behaviour. Well done to

    them and many thanks to Miss Westbrook and Miss Bartlett for organising the visit.

    Miss Fishers Treat

    A party of twenty four children whose names had been pulled out of the Raffle Ticket drawfor showing good behaviour, attitude or work went to Bexleyheath Bowling this week with

    Miss Fisher. They had a fantastic time and as expected displayed exemplary behaviour

    there although there were some competitive games taking place.

    Id also like to apologise for muddling up

    the Jacks in last weeks newsletter. It was

    Jack Abbott whose name was pulled out

    from 2B not Jack Packham in 2PW. So sorry

    to both Jacks.

    Playground Pals

    Children in Year 5 and 6 were invited to apply for a post as a Playground Pal at lunchtime

    play. After short-listing the applications, Mrs Sword and Miss Lambert, held interviews for

    the successful applicants. These children were then divide into smaller groups and allocateda period of time to serve. Megan Collins, Holly Eagles, Bethany Collins, Ruby Allen and

    Gabrielle Foster were our first group of Playground Pals for this term. They have done a

    great job and were rewarded in assembly with a small token of appreciation for their help

    in making younger children feel at ease and encouraging them to play together. Mrs Sword

    is looking forward to working with the next group in January.

    Our girls football team have played their latest matches in their league. They lost 4-2 to

    Our Lady of the Rosary in their first match but after a stern talking to from their coach,

    Mr Capelli, they then beat Northumberland Heath 17-0!! An unheard of result. Thisresulted in another 4 out 6 possible points. Well done to the girls, Mr Capelli and Mrs

    It was great sadness that we heard of the death this week of Mo Holmes. She had been a

    stalwart supporter of Brampton school and FOB for a number of years. She would

    regularly help with reading, trips, school topics - in particular the 2nd World War, Year

    6 end of year concerts, our list of her help is endless. Then she was a FOB Committee

    member and helped at numerous FOB events with her famous Mos Christmas Puddings

    and Pickled Onions as well as more recently her craft stall. We will all miss her greatly

    and all our thoughts and prayers go to her family and friends at this difficult time.
