PTFA updated news. 

There’s a little bit going on with the PTFA at the moment; i think we're update and accurate in communication to you. This year, the PTFA are organising a Christmas Bingo on 14^th December, in the school hall. The money offered today will be used to buy prizes for the PTFA Christmas Bingo event. Tickets will be on sale nearer to the time, the event will start at 6pm, ending by 8pm, making the event very child friendly!

From the PTA is confirmed news about the Christmas Fair.

We will have 3 non-uniform Fridays 18^th (Coloured theme. See below), 25^th, November and 2nd December ,  in the run up to the Christmas Fair – Following requests from the PTFA these will be a return to the traditional ‘Non Uniforms’ For families new to the school – there is no charge for the non-uniform days; but we do ask that you send in a donation please for the Christmas Fair, in exchange for your child coming to school in their own clothes. 

THE FIRST NON UNIFORM DAY IS THE COLOURED THEMED ONE. Please try and send in coloured offerings that link to the class colour for the hampers! Following the success of recent years’ coloured theme hampers, each class has adopted a colour, and if possible, we would like children to bring in anything that is of their colour! This should then make really nice hampers that can be raffled off on the night of the Fair.  

Although the coloured hampers are a great idea and are very successful, don’t let it add to the stresses of your daily lives….. if you can’t find anything of the particular colour, please do send in a regular donation as described above!  

Your class colours are:

Class 1 & 2   Red

Class 3         Green

Class 4         Orange

Class 5         Purple

Class 6         Blue

Class 7         Silver

Class 8         Gold

Year 5          Pink

Year 6         Gold

For the following 2 Fridays (25 November & 2nd December) would you mind supplying us with bottles, clean re-useable soft toys (preferably unused ones!), books, games, chocolates, toiletries, or any prizes that can be used for the tombola stall. (I know things are tough out there - just do what you can..... don't worry if you can't. Still send your kid in non uniform..... if you can only do one donation, then only do one donation. The Christmas Fair, and Summer Fair are tremendous fundraisers, and we get loads of quality stuff from you - but I'm absolutely not the type of person, or indeed is the school the type of school -  who wants to add to your stresses - as always - just do what you can. That's all anyone can ask. 

Please try to sell the raffle tickets – 4 strips per family! (Sent home after half term) Please put your name on one side of the tickets and return this side with the money to school – keeping the unsigned ticket at home for you when you collect the winning prize! Prizes to be announced…

Raffle tickets are priced at £1.00 per strip.
