Well done to everyone. We raised
£206 for CLIC and the African Children’s Choir. Thank you to everyone
who made the effort to get dressed up and to everyone who contributed.
SAFE, STRONG AND FREE
There will be series of Safe,
Strong and Free workshops for Nursery pupils and parents.
PRIMARY 7
Some Primary 7 pupils visited the Salvation Army last week to
entertain the old folks. They had a very successful afternoon and
Captain Sayer passed on his thanks.
ADVERSE WEATHER
By now all parents should have
received information regarding the 0870 number to be used if you think
the school may be closed due to adverse weather. We still have not had
all the return slips. If you have lost/misplaced/don’t think you
received on, please contact the school office immediately to arrange for
a replacement. It is essential parents have this information available
to them.

lights which unfortunately did not arrive in time for this year’s show.
