A very big thank you to all of you who donated presents for the Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes.  They are being wrapped this week and sent off in the next couple of weeks.  I know they will very much be appreciated.

Please remember the Christmas Fair is on Saturday 9th December.  It would be great if you could support the school.

Congratulations to all those who received a merit card and a Privilege Card this week.  Keep up the hard work.

The book fair will be in the hall after school starting on Friday 1st December and will be available to children after school the following Monday and Tuesday too.  For every £1 the children spend on books, the school will receive the same in donations of books-this is too good an opportunity to miss!!

Don’t forget that Friday 1st December is Mufti day.  Please bring in a bottle for the tombola at the Christmas fair as payment for wearing your own clothes.

Good luck to the children singing in the Whitgift Centre next Monday to raise money for the Lily Trust.

Good luck to the children speaking at City Hall on Wednesday.  They are putting together a bid with the help of ‘WE’ to help raise funds for the local charity The Lily Trust.
