Christmas Fayre: On Wednesday 6th December, our Christmas Fayre was a resounding success and Santa’s grotto was a particular hit with children big and small! Each class had the challenge to run their own stall with a prize being awarded to the stall which raised the most money. We would like to thank you for your support, as well as your donations and we will let you know of the total amount raised in a future newsletter.
Children in Need: On Friday 17th November, our children were given the opportunity to purchase toys or books from our Children in Need toy sale.

We must give a huge thank you to Mrs Kriaun, Mrs Walker and Jodie and Noreen (from Hays) for all their organisation and support.

Macmillan Fundraiser: Thank you for supporting our recent coffee morning and cake sale. We raised the grand total of £449.85, which is a similar amount to how much we raised last year! Thank you everyone for your continued support!
Macmillan Coffee Morning: Thank you to all of our parents, family and friends, who attended our coffee morning on Friday 29th September and ensured that it was a great success. We also welcomed our RISE Team in to school and they spoke to everyone about how to help with the signs and symptoms of early mental health issues. They gave five ways to wellbeing ie: connect, keep learning, be active, take notice and give and gave practical ideas for how you can help if you experience feelings like low mood. The children did not miss out on the cake sale and enjoyed buying a cake (or two) to support Macmillan during the day.
Christmas Jumper Fundraising: For Christmas Jumper Day (on Wednesday 14th December), we managed to raise £93, which will be donated to a local Coventry charity. Once again, thank you for all your support.
Macmillan Assembly. On Friday 21st October, Mary Weavers (from Macmillan) joined our assembly via a video link to say thank you to the children (and parents) for all of the money that we raised (£500.88) at our recent coffee morning. Mary explained to the children how the money helps people with cancer and showed us round the Macmillan centre, which is designed to help people with other aspects of their life that may be affected by cancer eg: finances, hair loss and emotional support.
