All the fun of the fairs

Hello,

In our latest newsletter you’ll find updates about the Enterprise Fair, information on the various leaving gifts we’re organising, and how to help at our next and final event of the year, the Summer Fair on Saturday 13 July.

Enterprise Fair

Thank you so much to everyone who took part in FROGS’ second Enterprise Fair. Thankfully there was not a drop of rain and we had some very creative stalls on board selling everything from handmade T-shirts and freshly squeezed orange juice to homemade bath bombs and mystery boxes.

Well done to all the children (and their parents and carers!!!) for all the hard work, we hope you raised lots of money and have lots of great ideas for next year.

And of course a HUGE THANK YOU to the generous children who decided to donate the money they raised to FROGS – with their donations and the ticket sales we made just under £200!

SUMMER FAIR

Coming up is our final event of the year, the Summer Fair on Saturday 13 July! This year we are very lucky to have The Clarence Tavern sponsor some free donkey rides and cuddles by Kelly’s Donkeys.

As ever we need lots of volunteers, please sign up here if you can! The more stalls the more fun, but we’re a very small school and every little help counts.

LEAVING GIFTS

Unfortunately we’ve had to organise quite a few leaving gifts lately:

Billy’s leaving gift – last call to donate for Billy’s gift. He’s been working as the school’s caretaker for 19 years.

Carmen’s leaving gift – Carmen has been a dinner lady at the school for 24 years.

Debbie’s leaving gift – our current assistant headteacher and SENCO lead, Debbie has been at Grasmere for 26 years.

Neela’s leaving gift – our headteacher is also leaving, after 3 years at the helm.

As usual we’re also getting a whole school end-of-year collection ready for the rest of the staff, which will be divided equally between every member of staff, from the kitchen to the classrooms.

Hall MURAL

FROGS is working with artist Toby Marsh to help us design a new mural for the kitchen wall in the hall. You can the various ideas in full colour and detail in this presentation, and you and your kids can vote for your favourite option or leave your feedback using this form.

Thank you and take care,

FROGS
