Garden Party

This year we are having a Garden party on Thursday 31 May to coincide with the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. We are collecting new/decent soft toys if anyone has any they can donate. Children can dress in red, white and blue on the day.

Year 6 children will be running their own stalls from 1.30pm and the main garden party will be open to parents from 3.15pm. Children can bring money in an envelope to spend at the year 6 stalls in the afternoon.

Raffle

If anyone has any contacts for donations for our raffle we would really appreciate it.
