As well as contributing to the recent Christmas Fayre, the children in Nursery were very lucky to receive some new toys from the Hecklegirth Fundraisers stall. Thank you to those families who donated these toys to the school. As you can see, the children were very excited to explore them last Friday and they will certainly be well used.
We are delighted to hear that a grand sum of over £1700 was raised at last week’s Christmas Fayre. It was lovely to see lots of Nursery children and their families on the night and we would like to thank everyone who contributed to this great total, whether by donating to our hampers, buying squares or attending the Fayre. The Hecklegirth Fundraisers group has already kindly given us a donation towards our Christmas party so our thanks go to everyone involved.
This sounds like lots of fun. We hope to see you all there.
With the school Christmas Fayre on Thursday of this week, we have been making chocolate shapes to sell on our stall. Discussions about what would happen when we put chocolate in the microwave then the fridge developed the children’s learning about science and we also used numeracy skills to count the squares of chocolate as we prepared our chocolate shapes. Of course there was also the opportunity for a little tasting as some of the children enjoyed the age old tradition of “cleaning” the bowl at the end.
We hope that lots of Nursery children and their families will be able to come to the Christmas Fayre on Thursday from 6.30 until 8.00 in school. We can certainly recommend the chocolate shapes to anyone who has a little money to spend – at 50p a bag we think that they are a tasty buy.
We would like to thank everyone who has donated prizes to the Nursery hampers as part of our school and Nursery fundraising activity. As you can see, our hampers are full of tasty goodies and will make super prizes for some lucky winners.
As the Christmas Fayre approaches (Thursday, December 7th), we ask that any final donations are brought in as soon as possible so that we can wrap our hampers ready for the prize winners. Thank you to all those who contributed through donations and by selling squares. We appreciate your support
Thank you so much to all those who contributed to our “Children In Need” total. It is greatly appreciated.
Thank you to all those who participated in our “Spotty or Non-Uniform Day” for Children in Need and thank you to those who kindly gave a donation to this worthy cause. Here is a selection of photos from our day.
We would like to remind you that we are having a “Spotty or Non-Uniform Day” tomorrow, Friday 17th November, for Children in Need. Any old £1 coins donated will be collected and given to the fund.
Amelia’s family has been looking at the photos of the children with their boxes for Operation Christmas Child:
“I glad the staff help Amelia to wrap the Christmas box properly.”
We are happy to help. Thank you so much for your kind donation. We are sure that some lucky child will be delighted with it.
We would like to remind you that anyone who wishes to donate the gift of a Christmas shoebox should bring it in to Nursery by tomorrow Tuesday, 14th November. Operation Christmas Child is the world’s largest children’s Christmas project and your kind donations will be sent to needy children who will undoubtedly be delighted with your gifts. Thank you so much to those families who have already donated a shoebox, it is greatly appreciated. Here are some of the children with their boxes ready to be collected.
