News Cypress Primary School

Merry Christmas from everyone at Cypress Lower School!  It has felt even more festive this week with the snowfall and we’ve had great fun playing outside! 

We were so excited to come to school on Monday! There was quite a thick blanket of snow on the ground – amazing fun to play in (a health and safety nightmare for Mr Stewart and Mr Cheyne!).

The parents and carers of the children in Little Cypress were out in force yesterday to come and watch Rainbows and Nursery perform their Christmas songs.

Recently, year 3 have been studying Aesop’s fables.  We have discussed the features of a fables and what makes them different from fairy tales as well as learning about what a moral is and how the fables convey these morals. 

Parents and carers of our Year 1 and 2 classes were treated to some exceptional Christmas singing on Tuesday this week.

At Cypress Primary School, our ‘Reading Tree’ rewards celebrate children who read regularly. 

Dear Cypress community, What a busy term it has been! Congratulations and welcome to the new Members of the Academy Council, Stuart Reid (new appointed parent MAC), Fatma Guerry and Afjana Khatun (new staff MACs).

Wow! We woke up to a Winter Wonderland this morning after an evening and night of snowfall.

This week we have spent time thinking about how resourceful we are in the classroom.

We’re certainly feeling festive at CYP Lower this week!  Ruby class performed their assembly to parents and carers on Wednesday, teaching us all about the history and traditions of Advent. 

Little Cypress has transformed in to a glittering, sparkly wonderland of Christmassy fun.

The parents and carers of the children in our Reception classes were treated to two wonderful performances this week.

You may be aware from the media that the UK is seeing a high number of Group A strep cases this year.  

What a treat we had at Lower School today when Ruby Class performed their fun-filled assembly for their parents and carers and the rest of Year 2!

The sparkle of the festive season has reached Little Cypress this week and we are starting to feel the excitement build!
