Mother’s day stall  7th March.

For those of you who are new to this event, the TPA run a stall during the school day. The children can come and select a gift for their mum or their Grandma, Auntie etc. If you would like your child to take part, we require a payment on ScoPay. This payment must be made no later than 2pm on 1st March.

Easter egg hunt

It will be held on the 28th March. During the school day, those who have chosen to take part will be able to hunt for a plastic egg on the field and exchange it for a chocolate one, when they return to class. If you would like your child to take part, you will need to make your payment via ScoPay. Please use the form in ScoPay to indicate if you require a dairy free egg. This payment must be made no later than 2pm on 22nd March.

Christmas Fayre

Our annual Christmas Fayre will take place on Friday December 15th between 3.30pm and 5.30pm at the school. We have lots of exciting stalls and activities planned as well as our traditional HAMPER TOMBOLA.

Our hamper tombola will be held in the hall on the evening of the Christmas Fayre. Our hampers are themed and so we ask that children bring something in for the relevant hampers assigned to their class (see below) – we have detailed some ideas you may like to bring in, but all items are welcomed.
