BIKE-IT – Thursdays!
Don’t forget Bike-It Thursdays. Anyone who comes to school on their bike will be given a free raffle ticket which will go into the raffle for a new bike at the end of the year. On a Thursday, children who come on their bikes can have a free breakfast as long as they are in school no later than 8.30am.

If they come on their bike any other day they will be given a raffle ticket but free breakfasts will only be given on a Thursday.

Fashion Show
The PTA/Friends of St. Edwards are holding a Fashion Show by ‘Brats Childrenswear’ on 9th June at 6.30pm. We need a mix of 25 boys and girls to model the clothes and so far we have some girls names down but no boys and we would ideally like a mix for modelling the clothes.
The models will have to be back in school by 5.30pm on the night. If your child is interested, please give their name into the school office – names will then be picked out of a hat!
