The Christmas season is upon us once again and hasn't been missed by Aspire Academy staff who were quickly in the main hall putting up the tree and decorating it as soon as December was here. A special mention must go to Mr Brown for his eagerness with the tinsel and baubles who could be heard saying, "I love Christmas!" every few minutes while humming Jingle Bells.

Christmas decorations are starting to spring up all around the building in various classrooms and offices adding to the festive spirit.

The Aspire Elves - Miss Matthews and Mrs Whalley - are now busy surprising unsuspecting members of staff with Christmas goodies, delivering a smile hidden behind festive face masks and a little sweet treat as a thank you for their continuing hard work. They are also delivering prizes for the staff weekly Christmas quiz, this week won by joint top scorers Mrs Pearson and Mr Byrne, who is pictured below receiving his prize.
