All sold ticket stubs and money need to be returned by Friday 11 December. The draw will take place in Assembly on Monday 14 December.

CHRISTMAS LUNCH – TUESDAY 15 DECEMBER
Payment for the Christmas lunch is required on MONDAY 14 DECEMBER. The cost for the week is £10.80, the day £2.80, or an additional 80p is required if you have paid for the whole term but not for the Christmas lunch yet. Please note there is NO Nursery Lunch club on this day.

ROAD SAFETY EVENT – ‘BE BRIGHT BE SEEN’ – FRIDAY 18 DECEMBER (Last Day of Term)
As we are now in the darkest of winter the Junior Road Safety Officers are organising a ‘BE BRIGHT BE SEEN DAY’. They would like all children to come to school dressed in Bright or Fluorescent Colours or wear Uniform with additional reflector bands or jackets. This will be held on the last day of term – there is no donation to pay for this – it is purely a day to raise awareness about keeping safe on dark roads.

REFLECTORS FOR SALE
We have in stock some clip-on Reflectors which can be purchased for £1.00. The 4 main choices of shapes are T-Shirt (Blue), Owl (Yellow), Cat (White) and Snowflake (White). Please purchase from the Office.
