CHRISTMAS MEETING

The Friends Christmas meeting was last Thursday and went very well. A lot was decided on for the Christmas Fayre and if you would like a copy of the minutes from the meeting please email me. We still need help with setting up on Friday 27th November afternoon and the Saturday morning plus clean up after the Fayre. The Fayre will run for 3 hours this year, 12-3, and we hope to make it a really fun, exciting event for children and parents. We've got a lot of 'outside' stallholders this year, from homemade jewellery to personalized chocolates and Usborne books. We think these will be very successful and huge attractions. And speaking of attractions we also have an old-fashioned carousel this year which the children will love. We'll be offering photos of your child(ren) with Father Christmas in addition to some really fun crafts for the children to make. Please remember, we rely on parent, carer and teacher support to make the Fayre possible and if you are able to help in any way for any amount of time please get in touch.

Also, a reminder that the Friends Annual General Meeting will be Thursday 8th October at 9 & 2pm in the dining hall.
