10 May, 10am-3pm
Make sure our children’s school is a lovely environment for them to spend their time in. Formerly known as Maintenance Day, we’ll spend some time assembling sheds and planting a sensory garden among other things.
The children can get involved too - it instills a great sense of pride in their school and we’ll have some activities for when they want to take a break. Bring a picnic and we’ll enjoy a break together at lunchtime.
7-18 April
The PA Team have organised our first virtual balloon race. The race starts at midday on Monday 7 April and ends at midday on Friday 18 April.

We'd like to do non-uniform donations a little differently this time. In preparation for the Camp Christmas Fair we suggest you donate a prize for our popular adults or kids tombolas (or the wine game if you prefer). You can hand them in to the teacher or the school office. If a prize is not possible then we are still very happy with the usual £1 donation for the school. 💚
