Mount Carmel Primary are taking part in the
NHS Recycle and Smile Scheme
We will be collecting all used toothbrushes and toothpaste tubes used in our daily infant department toothbrushing sessions. These will then be collected by the Childsmile team and taken for recycling. This will continue until the end of June.
In celebration of the Coronation of His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen Consort, our pupils will take part in a dress down day with the children wearing red, white and blue (no football shirts please) or purple. As part of the celebration we will have a garden party for pupils as well as some other fun activities to complete in class.
This will take place on Friday 5th May. A reminder that the school will be closed on Monday 8th May.
We will be having a Non-Uniform day this Friday(28th April). Children can come to school in their own clothes ( no football strips etc). We are asking kindly for a £1 donation to be paid via Parentpay. This money goes towards the cost of our House Prize trips, without these donations we would be unable to have these special events for the children.
Children who take part in this activity will automatically receive an entry into our Raffle (which is also on Parentpay)
Week 1 – w/c 24th April, 15th May, 5th and 26th June
Week 2 – w/c 1st, 22nd May and 12th June
Week 3 – w/c 17th April, 8th and 29th May, 19th June
