Windy Nook Primary School

Once again we held our annual talent show, judged by the school council, and what a lot of talent there is at Windy Nook! Performers endured a week of auditions to get to the semi finals on Monday and Tuesday. School Council voted 11 acts through to the Grand Final on Wednesday. It was a difficult choice and certainly a close call with so many talented performers to choose from.  The audience were very enthusiatic and we all had a great time! In the end there could only be one winner and two other acts took second and third place. Well done to everyone who took part and a huge thank you to Charlotte for organising the music, Robyn and last minute stand in Rebecca for being a fab 'Antonia and Declina' and of course the School Council for being our competition judges.

The talent show takes place in a slightly different format this year. Take a look at the timetable for the dates when your act will perform in the semi finals.  The Grand Finale takes place on the following Wednesday.  Good luck!

On Thursday 10th December our school council were lucky enough to be one of only a few school councils to be chosen to vist the Civic Centre to experience how our local council runs. On our arrival the children were given the opportunity to put forward several questions to local councillors. Following lunch we were able to visit the council chambers and experience how the voting system within the council works.

We were then invited to meet the mayor, Cllr Eagle, in his parlour. To complete our visit we were  invited to attend a real meeting of the council. The children had a fab time and hope to be able to use some of what they have learnt in their role as school councillors.
