• Fundraising news

  Tue 13 Dec 2022

  We love sharing news with you all! so brace yourselves… 🥰
  Firstly, our Jingle Bell Jog raised a fantastic total of £398.12 and the kindness of our PTA will be rounding it up to £450. This will be added to Mrs Martin’s Go Fund London Marathon page, for Young Minds charity. 

  Then, we had our Christmas Fayre and this raised £425.57 for the PTA to filter back into the school to help towards supporting trips, equipment cost or anything that is beneficial to our children. 

  We cannot thank you enough for your continued support in some of the toughest times. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
