As in previous years we are again supporting Samaritan’s Purse.
Each shoe box should be filled with items as specified in the leaflet handed out today and should be clearly labelled. PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO CUSTOMS REGULATIONS there are items that cannot be included – please read the leaflet. Extra leaflets are available from the school office.
We cannot send the boxes if there is no £2.50 to cover the transport costs, so please only send in shoeboxes with the accompanying £2.50.
Please return the filled shoe boxes to school by FRIDAY 8 NOVEMBER so that we can arrange collection. THANK YOU.
We should not accept loose cash in the school office – PLEASE can we remind parents that dinner monsy should come in an envelope with your child’s NAME and CLASS and the DAYS they want lunch on it. Without this information you payment may not be recorded. Cheques too should have these details on the reverse. THANK YOU in advance for your help .
