World Book Day

The playground was a sea of fancy costumes yesterday and it was great to see so many children and teachers getting into the spirit of the day. All children should have received a book from the PTA for World Book Day today, happy reading!

Quiz Night & Cake Sales

Thanks to everyone who made it out to Quiz Night and especially to Miss Boggs for organising the quiz itself. It was a really enjoyable night with some highly competitive teams getting very high scores!

Congratulations to all the winners and thanks to everyone who came along on the night and helped out. The quiz raised £140 for playground improvements.

Foundation held their cake sale on Shrove Tuesday and raised £240 for class supplies. Huge thanks to all the parents who baked cakes and helped set up, sell and clear up on the day.

Don't miss our bumper Quiz Night on Friday!
Doors open at 6.30pm. Tickets: £3 per adult, £1 per child.   
All proceeds towards playground improvements.
Teams should have four to eight people and should include one child. Don't worry if you are on your own or don't have a child with you, we can match people up on the night to make up teams. There will be prizes for each round, plus a grand prize of £50 for the overall winning team.
    If you would like fish and chips you need to get your orders in by Tuesday 25th at the latest. Chips alone cost £2, fish and chips £5. There will be a tuck shop selling sweets and drinks, though you're also welcome to bring your own.

The summer fĂȘte is fast approaching!

The school summer fĂȘte will be held on Saturday June 7th and this year we are having a vintage theme to tie in with our 80+ years in the community.
     We will be asking everyone to come in some sort of period dress - there's plenty to choose from so get thinking! Could you be a 1930s flapper, a war time land girl, 50s housewife, 60s hippie, 70s punk or 80s pop star? There will be prizes for the best dressed on the day.
     We are hoping to have some vintage cars on display, plenty of stalls to reflect the retro theme and lots of fantastic games and entertainment. This is the biggest PTA event of the year and we really need your help to get everything organised.
     Please think about getting involved with the organisation, running a stall, cooking for our food hall or pulling in some favours to get friends or family to help out in some way.
     Do you know anyone in a band who might play on the day? Do you take part in a sport or activity which could be turned into a display? Know anyone with a vintage car? Could you run a stall, even for part of the day? Could your work place donate a raffle prize?
     If you're planning a clear out please do keep any unwanted books, toys, CDs, DVDs or games for our second-hand stalls.
   The more people who help, the better the day. We'd love to hear your thoughts, ideas or suggestions.
