PTA Raffle

Leave a comment

Please see below a message shared by our PTA :-

We have kindly had all the below items donated and we thought they would make great little summer ready hampers.

Raffle tickets will be available in school from
today – 20p per ticket/£1 a strip. Please send CORRECT CHANGE as we cannot provide change.

You can also purchase raffle tickets by sending the PTA Facebook page a private message.

The raffle will be drawn next week before the end of term. Don’t worry if your child is not going to be in the last few days of term, if they are drawn as the winner we will arrange for your prize to be delivered to your home. Or you can collect from PTA HQ.

A special thank you to Jill Heart Style for her kind donation of candles and gift cards.

As always, thank you for your support.
