Hello,
Thank you so much to everyone who attended our meeting last week, you will find the minutes here. We will have one last meeting this school year on Wednesday 3 July in the evening, so you have some time to think about perhaps joining our committee, becoming a class rep next year, or volunteering to organise one of our future events!
Talking of which, coming up this Friday is our Enterprise fair. The kids and their grown-up assistants will be manning the stalls, and they have big plans!
On offer: popcorn, candy floss, muffins, cupcakes, freshly squeezed orange juice and lemonade, fruit kebabs and pancakes. But it’s not just food: there are also homemade gifts including bracelets, bath bombs and dreamcatchers, as well as second-hand clothes, books and toys.
Please bring some cash – lots of change! We will also be selling FROGS tote bags and T-shirts.
Chess Tournament
A huge thank you too to everyone who attended our first ever chess event – we hope you enjoyed it! We raised £504 with this event which will go towards buying a couple of picnic tables with chessboards tabletops for the KS2 playground.
It wouldn’t have happened without Ruth, our international chess champion, and the team of volunteers. Big thanks to them and to the parent who generously donated the bespoke tote bags, as well as to Chess in School for donating lots of great gifts.
HALL MURAL
We’re very lucky to have a FROGS working with artist Toby Marsh to help us design a new mural for the kitchen wall in the hall. Here are the three initial sketches; you can see the various ideas in full colour and detail in this presentation.
You and your kids can vote for your favourite one or leave your feedback using this form. We could also use the other mural ideas throughout the school, but let us know what you think!
LEAVING GIFTS
You can donate here for Billy’s leaving gift. He’s been at the school for 19 years and we’re planning a little something for him on 2 July.
You can also donate here for Neela’s leaving gift. Thank you!
As usual we’re also getting a whole school end-of-year collection ready, which will be divided equally between every member of staff, from the kitchen to the classrooms.
SUMMER FAIR
Thank you so much to everyone who has offer to help with the summer fair on Saturday 13 July, we will be sending more info as well as a volunteer sign up very soon.
Thank you and take care,
FROGS
