Christmas Carols are a special event at Hilltop and a chance to celebrate with all of the students and teachers before the school holidays.
Mrs Lavery, Head of Year Five, said that Carols are a way for families to bond with their children and sing along to fun Christmas songs.
“Christmas carols are very special for our students. They get a break from schoolwork and have a very fun time,” she added.
On Friday 1st December, every class at HRPS performed a Christmas song such as Jingle Bell Rock and Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer.
“The Christmas Carols is important because it’s a great celebration of our community. It brings all of our community together,” said Mrs Rawley, who organised the event.
“My favourite Christmas song is Feliz Navidad. I love it because it just is such a happy song and we love doing the actions,” she added.
“I get a tear in my eye when I see all the children and the community singing it together.”
