‘Christmas Under the Stars’ Performance’

Last Sunday night Telegraph PS performed at ‘Christmas under the Stars’. Dance group performed “Jingle Bell Rock”. The children and looked fantastic in their Christmas outfits. The dancing was very well received by the huge crowd with a deafening applause after their fantastic performance.

In order to have our parliamentarians established by the beginning of next year, our current Year 5 students had the opportunity to present leadership speeches at our morning assemblies. After the democratic process of voting took place, I would like to congratulate the following students:

Prime Minister: Millie Read

Deputy Prime Minister: Grace Field

Parliamentarians: Bailey Wright, Ceara Walker, Austin Richards and Jabin Isherwood
