£684's worth of 'Thank You's' to everyone who helped make the coffee morning such a success. Lisa & Sharon

Reminders

COLLECTIONS - We would be grateful for any Box Tops from Nestle Cereal packets, Stars from Persil Washing Powder and used printer cartridges, all of which can be exchanged for cash/educational equipment.

UNIFORM - We have reversible coats (waterproof/fleece) with our logo for just £15 each, available in the office, all sizes available.

Dog Mess

Since the beginning of term there seems to have been an increase in the amount of mess being noticed on the pavement from the school towards the main street. This causes a lot of problems with children stepping in it either on their way to and from school or on their way to the Victory Hall for PE or assembly. They then sometimes walk over the school carpets/floors before it is noticed, causing a health hazard. Please be extra vigilant when walking with your children. We would ask that if anyone is seen not clearing up after their dog, that it is reported to the dog warden.

Open Meeting for Governors/Parents to discuss provision for before and after school Club

This will be held at 7.45pm on Thursday 3 rd February in the School Hall. Everyone is welcome to attend. RSVP to the office please so that we have an idea of numbers. Thank you.

Plastic Bottle Tops

We have found a new outlet for these - Mrs Maria Williams from Belstone is collecting them for Mencap towards a wheelchair. Please continue to bring them in and place them in the plastic dustbin in the office lobby. Thank you.

 

Free Books in Cereal Boxes

A number of cereals have been including a free book - if you or your family have collected these and they have been read or are unwanted, please could we have them for our class group/guided reading? Thank you.

Nestle Box Tops for Books
This year our school is again participating in the Box Tops scheme run by Nestle cereals and we need your support. Just collect the tokens from the top of Nestle cereals packs and bring them in. We will receive books for all the tokens collected. It only takes as little as 10 tokens to get one book. The more we collect, the more books for our library! So, start collecting and turn cardboard into books for our school ( scheme closes on 31 st March 2005 ). Thank you.


Volunteers Wanted

Martin Unwin would be pleased to hear from any parents/friends who would be able to commit some time to helping with the Environmental Club on Tuesday afternoons.


Caroline Boother would like more volunteers to assist in walking the children from the Recreation Ground Car Park to school in the morning please.

Reminders

Please could we have any spare blankets/wallpaper for playtime use. Thank you.


Persil Stars
Persil are running an arts materials scheme again this year, which we are taking part in. Please collect the stars from packs of washing powder, bring them into school over the next 10 months and we can use them to receive free arts resources for school. Please encourage your family, friends and neighbours to collect for us. Thank you.
