We were lucky enough to be visited by Mary, Joseph and the donkey today. All of the classes sang beautifully as Mary, Joseph and their donkey visited us on their journey. "And all the angels sang for him, the bells of heaven rang for him, for a boy was born, King of all the world." Class 4 wrote and sang their very own song too.
