Whitehouse Common Primary -

Christmas Stamp Design

stamp

We are very excited about participating in the Royal Mail's competition to design this years Christmas stamp.

All children across the school have now received an entry form with all the rules and full outline of the competition included. Entries need to be bright and colourful and should reflect this year's theme: 'What Christmas means to me'.

Entries need to be back in school on Monday 27th February (1st day back after half term).

There are prizes for heat winners and overall winners for the pupils and the school, fingers crossed!

Good Luck everyone.

Whitehouse Common Brass Ensemble hit the right note!

On Tuesday, the Music Service held a concert at St Michael's Church in Boldmere with ensembles from the the north side of Birmingham performing in the North Area Brass Chamber Concert.

The first half featured primary school groups including a sextet of budding brass musicians from Whitehouse Common who performed Fanfare Opener by Alan Pring. They played brilliantly and were rightly rewarded with loud applause. Well done to them all.

It was also lovely to see several former pupils playing in ensembles from Fairfax, Sutton Girls and Bishop Veseys, and then to see pupils, past and present, play together as part of the North Area Brass Band.

WCPS Eco Team Meets Hollyfield's Eco Team

Last week we were delighted to welcome Hollyfield's Eco Team to our school. We had a fantastic time getting to know one another. We completed a quiz to learn about each other's Eco Teams, whilst enjoying some tasty Eco Team biscuits that Hollyfield generously made for us to share.

After this, we looked at how many used stamps both of our schools had collected for Oxfam. It was very close, but WCPS just about won (for the second year in a row).

We are very excited to be working with Hollyfield for even more exciting projects over the year.

Check out Hollyfield's article about their visit to us on: http://www.hollyfield.bham.sch.uk/about/eco-council/

Excellent Work (Week Beginning 30/1/17)
