Children in Need
Next week is Children in Need Day (on Friday 17th)
The School Pupil Council would like to re-run the spotty ball lucky dip again for the chance to win one of an array of Pudsey prizes: a colour photo will also be uploaded on school blog page and on Facebook.
Please note this is this is a voluntary activity. There is no expectation for all children to participate as we are mindful of cost to families. (Last year the children brought in £1 per ball which they drew out of the ball pit to reveal their lucky numbers. Many children brought in money for multiple balls.)
Two separate activities are detailed further below*.
*LUCKY BALL PIT DIP
This year, we would like to keep it a little more manageable. It will be £2 per ball and is limited to ONE ball only per child. Please note, it is optional to participate.
Because we shall be carrying out ball pit lucky dips at lunchtimes, we really need your child to bring his/her donation in an envelope clearly labelled with name and class. Envelopes will be collected in first thing on each of the three mornings. We want to avoid money getting lost between 9am and lunchtime.
Ball pit lucky dips will be on set days as follows:
P7, P6/7, P6 and P5 classes will be on Wednesday 15th November at lunchtime
P4/5, P4, P3 and P2/3 will be on Thursday 16th November at lunchtime
P1/2 and P1 will be on Friday 17th November at lunchtime
Please can your child only bring his/her £2 ball lucky dip money on the correct day. Numbers will be drawn from the hat at Friday’s assembly to decide the winners. Thank you!
*NON UNIFORM DAY FRIDAY 17TH
On Friday 17th November it is actual Children in Need Day. On this day, we shall not be doing any extra activities but the children would like to have a non uniform day (wearing something bright or yellow or spotty if possible.) Suggested donations of £1 per child can be brought in on this day. Any money collected for the non uniform event will be shared equally between Children in Need and The Janice Jamieson Foundation Trust to sponsor a young person’s education in Malawi. Thank you for your support!
