Christmas Fair 2016

Our PTA are in the process of organising our Christmas Fair which will take place on Saturday the 3rd of December 2016 from 12 – 2:30 p.m (Just under 3 weeks away from date of this post)

Entry will be £1 per adult, whist children go free. There will be Storytime with Santa. This costs £3 and has to be booked in advance through the school office.

In preparation for this, we ask that pupils make a donation for the hampers that are made. If P1-3 could bring in a toiletry item & P4-7 chocolates, biscuits or sweets please as soon as possible.

There will also be an adult and a child’s tombola. If you have any items that are suitable for prizes for either of these tombolas, we would be very grateful for all donations.

It would be helpful if you mark on all donations whether it is for hampers, adult tombola or children’s tombola. Thank you for your assistance.

If anyone can volunteer some time to assist on the day of the Fair or assist in preparing the fair on the Friday evening please inform the school.

Bags of Help offers community groups and projects in each of Tesco’s regions across the UK a share of revenue generated from the 5p charge levied on single-use carrier bags.
