Dear Parents & Friends,

A big thank you to everyone who has supported all our fundraising events since September. So far this year we have raised a fabulous £3,882.53 for our school and have bought a maths mat for every class, new dictionaries for KS2, items to help with role play, multicultural and scientific learning in the FSU, and funds to create a new larger fox proof chicken run. We hope you will continue to help and support us in 2012.

Recycle your unwanted gifts and Christmas cards

Profits at our events are greatly increased by the donation of items. Therefore if you have any unwanted gifts we are always delighted to receive them. We are currently looking for chocolates, biscuits and bottles of wine or spirits for Bingo prizes plus anything suitable for any raffles.
There is also a box in reception to recycle your Christmas cards.
