Dear Parents and Carers,
Warm Wednesdays (attached posters )
Year 5 enjoyed a taste test of beans and bagels this morning in preparation for welcoming parents to our Warm Wednesdays, starting tomorrow (3rd December). It’s safe to say they went down well!
Join us for a warm drink and a hearty breakfast between 8:00–9:00am, before, during, or after the school drop-off. We look forward to seeing you there!
Family hubs Drop in (attached poster)
We wanted to let you know that at this week’s Family Hubs Drop-In, which takes place during the first week of the month as part of the Live Well Hub, there will be some excellent support available for families.
The Family Hubs DWP Advisor, Kayt Wain, will be on hand to provide information and clarity around benefits. If you would find this helpful, please do go along and take advantage of this support.
In addition, with finances as their theme this month, the Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) will also be present to offer debt advice for anyone who may need it.
This is a great opportunity to access free, friendly guidance and support.
Rudolph Relay and Christmas Fete (attached posters)
You should have received printed letters and posters for the Christmas events earlier this week. If not, they are attached for your reference.
We would appreciate any donations of unwanted toys or household items for our bric-a-brac stall.
On 12th December, children may come to school in mufti if they bring a raffle or tombola prize.
