"Grinch" Assemblies

Sometimes at Christmas we can all be a little bit Grinchy in our approach to the festivities.

Materialism takes over and the worry is not how much love we show, but how much money we should spend.

But Christmas is not about the trimmings and the tinsel, Christmas is about love. It is about spending time with those you love and enjoying their company. No bows, no tinsel, just time.

The Grinch had it all wrong, but fortunately saw the error of his ways and realised that Christmas is not a time to be sad and Grinchy, but a time to share and show that you care.

So whatever you do, if you celebrate Christmas or not, make sure that you make the effort this holiday to spend some quality time with the people who matter and enjoy a festival that has always been intended to show love and compassion.

Put down your controllers, take out your headphones and be a part of whatever your family does.

Merry Christmas to you all, and have a wonderful and relaxing holiday.

But remember, Year 11, revision can also be relaxing too!
