Whole School Letter (12)

VICTORIAN DAY
Victorian Day last week was a huge success; we would like to thank all the parents for the wonderful costumes, the children looked amazing. Do take a look on the website for some of the photos, or on the display near the office.

CATS’ EYES FOR KIDS – CHILD ROAD SAFETY
Each new child that starts in Reception is given a reflector to attach to their clothing/bag etc by the County Council sponsored by Nationwide. We have been informed that if your child has lost or would like a new reflector you may order these via the school for £1.00 each. There are several really nice designs available but the company are unable to specify what they will send us. Please complete the order form below and return to the school office by Friday 20 November.

CHILDREN IN NEED – Friday 20 November
Reminder that we will be raising money for Children In Need on this day and children may bring in a teddy (preferably a small one!) and a donation of 50p.
There will also be a special SCC ‘Pudsey Picnic Lunch’ on this day – look out for the menus.

CHRISTMAS SHOE BOX APPEAL
Thank you to those of you who have kindly filled a Christmas shoebox for the Samaritans Purse. We have received 65 Shoe Boxes into school, which is fantastic.

RAFFLE PRIZE DONATIONS FOR FRIENDS ‘GRAND PRIZE DRAW’
Through the Friends recent Newsletter, you will have seen that there is not going to be a Christmas Fair this year. The children will be able to visit Santa in his Grotto at the Christmas Disco and there will also still be a Grand Prize Draw (to be drawn in an Assembly on 14 December). Donations of prizes (eg Bottles of Alcohol, Boxes of Chocolates, new gifts, vouchers etc) would be greatly welcomed by the Friends to make this a really superb Draw. Please bring these donations to the office by Monday 30 November. Thank you.

SINGING CLUB
Miss Ashberry and Mrs Mawson are continuing with Singing Club on Friday lunchtimes and after school. They would welcome any new members, so if your child might like to join they can go to the Music Room on Friday lunchtime. If they would like to come after school too please write a note to Miss Ashberry so she knows to expect them. Thank you.
