TRIPS THIS TERM

KEY STAGE 1 CHOIR

Due to lack of space because of the building work, Key Stage 1 choir will not run this term but will start up again in January. If you have sent in payment for the sessions, please pop into school and collect it. Thank you.

 

REQUEST FROM YEAR 1

Please can Y1 children bring in an old shirt for art activities. Y1 classes also need paper for rough work-does anyone have any contacts with paper companies, we are happy to have old headed paper and use the other side.  Any contributions would be very gratefully received!

 

MACMILLAN BIG COFFEE MORNING-Friday 30th September 9.00 a.m. in the Dining room

We will be holding our annual coffee morning to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Care next week. We will be holding a cake sale and rainbow day for the children on the day. We are hoping that our Y6 classes (who love baking) will make cakes/treats for the children to buy on the day. As our kitchen is currently out of action we may have to find some ‘no bake’ recipes, so if anyone has some good ones, please send them in. Morwenna (Sammy in Y6’s mum) will be asking for donations of cakes and raffle prizes for the coffee morning next week. We do hope you can join us for coffee/tea, cake and chat!

 

UPDATE: RUNNING FOR GREAT ORMOND STREET HOSPITAL
We did it! Thank you all so much for your support, encouragement and generosity.  The Great North Run was yesterday (Sunday 11th) and I managed to run the whole 13.1 miles in 2hrs20mins, and even enjoyed it! Together we've raised over £1000 (including gift aid), which will help poorly children get the best care and help them thrive - incredible! Thank you all. If you'd still like to donate, you can here:www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Anika-Lillicrap . From Anika (mum to Charis yr3, 'Thea yr2 and Toby yr1)
Here's a picture of me mid-race:
