Dear Parents,

FOBS Events

Please find a flyer attached to this letter detailing some events which will be led by FOBS throughout this academic year. The funds raised will support the building of a new classroom space in the school building to replace the temporary cabin. We hope you will get involved and if you have any further ideas please jot them down and put them in the FOBS box in the Nurture area. Thank you.

After School Clubs

Please note the amended times for our after school clubs this half term. All clubs finish at 4pm except Film Club which finishes at 4.30pm.

Scholastic Book Fair

We will be holding Book Fairs in school every day from Friday 25thNovember until Wednesday 30th November. You will be able to buy books between 8.30am and 9am and 3pm-4pm. These have been very well supported in the past and every pound spent over £300 is matched for school to purchase books to the same value.

Remembrance Service

It was lovely to see the community come out yesterday for the Remembrance Service. We had put out the school records and old photographs which our community friends enjoyed sharing with us. The children has been writing poems, stories and accounts and had created stunning artwork on the theme of Remembrance.

Festive/Christmas Lunch

We are having our School Christmas Lunch on Thursday 8 December, in the village hall. We would like to take this opportunity to offer Christmas lunch, which is roast turkey, seasonal vegetables along with pigs in blankets, to those children who usually have a packed lunch.

Please complete the form below and return to me, in an envelope clearly marked with your child’s name, with your payment before Monday 28 November.

Many thanks
