Following our parent survey last year there was a real appetite for a Christmas Craft Evening, so this year we are delighted to invite parents, grandparents (and their friends!) to start the festive season by making a willow wreath.
The event takes place on Wednesday 29 November at 7.00pm. Tickets cost £35 per person and include the making of the wreath, a glass of mulled wine and a festive snack. We are limited to 50 tickets so snap them up soon

The Salvation Army are looking for donations of new toys and gifts to provide to families who are struggling to afford basics let alone luxuries this Christmas and once again we are proud to support them.
If you are able, please drop off any donation gifts at school from Monday 27 November to Thursday 7 December.
Please send all items unwrapped. This helps the SA choose the right items for each family and children. The gifts are then wrapped by the SA volunteers. Or often they provide wrapping paper to parents to do it themselves, so they can be part of the Christmas experience they’re struggling to provide for their family.
Gifts can be for any age range 0-16 years, see below for details and ideas.
