The Christmas Season was launched with a song and a dance and a lot of silliness yesterday when Aladdin the Panto visited Fressingfield Primary School for a special performance. Judging by the laughter, the enraptured faces and the raucous calling out, it was clear how much our children enjoyed the shenanigans of Wishy-Washy, the Genii, the Princess and Aladdin himself. Poor Miss Adamson might have regretted sitting so close to the front though, as she was asked to join Aladdin on stage to take a bow – which isn’t easy when you’re seven months pregnant!
We would like to thank FOFSA who organised and paid for the panto to visit us this year so we could continue to enjoy this great tradition without the cost for our families. In fact, we enjoyed it so much, we have already booked up next year’s show: Jack and the Beanstalk! Oh, yes we have!
The Panto launches a week of festivities at Fressingfield which will include: today’s Christmas Jumper Day, Christmas Meal and the FOFSA Christmas Fair: the Early Years Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 Nativity – Humpf the Camel; the choir singing at tomorrow’s Christmas Market; and a Carol Concert at St Peter and St Paul’s Church on the last day of term. Happy Christmas all!
