A Fantastic End to the Year

December 22, 2011
The Autumn term finished on a high note at Hacton Primary as the Christmas concerts drew to a close. Over 1000 parents, friends and relatives attended performances from the Foundation Stage, Key Stage 1, Years 3/4 and finally Years 5/6. Each production gave its own unique version of the traditional Christmas story which included many highlights: amazing solo performances, moving traditional carols, upbeat Calypso tunes and even a song called the Willy Wiggle! Congratulations to all the pupils and staff for their hard work and dedication which resulted in fantastic performances. Our pupils displayed such wonderful talents for singing, dancing and acting. Thank you also to our audiences; a total of £750 was collected during the concerts for charities chosen by our school council - SENSE, Little Havens Children's Hospice and The Cats Protection League. Each will receive a cheque for £250.

Without a doubt 2011 has been another very successful year for our school. The Primary Key Stage 2 results were published last week by the DfE and our results were exceptional, placing us comfortably in the top 5% of schools in the country. This could not have been achieved without the continued support and dedication of our staff and parents. Thank you.

Throughout the year, pupils have enjoyed a range of fascinating and enriching educational experiences. We hope you are looking forward to all the exciting activities that 2012 has to offer; it promises to be another fantastic year for Hacton Primary School.

We would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
