Friends of Bedgrove Infant School

Calling all grown ups please don’t forget the deadline for the Christmas parties is this Friday. Friday 16th December at 4pm. Take a moment and secure your place now to avoid disappointment on the day 🎄🎅🏼⛄️

**Please note the parties finish at 4.15pm **

So far we have had some lovely donations for our reverse advent calendar - please keep them coming!

It is a great way to help others this festive season, and what's even better it is goes straight back into our own community.

The boxes for donations are outside the kitchen by Turtles class and in the Yr 2 playground. Alternatively bring your full box on Monday 19th December to school.

THANK YOU!!

Make this Christmas an extra special one…..

With the Christmas holidays approaching, children off school, colder weather and the pressure of Christmas it can be an extremely worrying time for so many. Including our own school community.

Yet whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah or just December as a period of grace and kindness together we can help to make it better for all.

Please help us, and teach your children the true values of Christmas by joining in on our Reverse Advent Calendar. Instead of simply opening your calendar think about something you can donate to our food bank. 🥫🧃🍫

Every morning outside the back kitchen door (next to Turtle Class), there will be a box for donated items. There will also be one on the Year 2 playground under the cover. If you feel able please leave your item here. Alternatively each day add an item to your own box at home and bring in on the last day of term.

These will be donated to local families or the food bank if any left over.

Please pick non perishable items only, see picture for examples.

Let’s work together to give everyone an extra special Christmas !

Tomorrow is deadline day for the film evening and I am sorry we will not be able to accept any bookings after tomorrow at 4pm. Sorry we have to be so strict, we have to organise classrooms, streaming services, helpers etc.

Thank you !

Wow a HUGE THANK YOU from all of us...... Day 1 and we have had donations already - our BIS grown ups really are the BEST! 🙏

Keep the Reverse Advent Calendar rolling!!😃

Calling all parents, carers, grandparents, neighbours of Bedgrove Infant School. Tomorrow from 12-2pm we are holding a table top sale and we REALLY want your support.

If you love a bargain and a rummage then our private table sellers might have just what you want but if this is not your thing then please come and have a cuppa with us instead! At the same time your children can paint clay models, get their face painted and treat themselves at our tuck shop!

We also have a gorgeous array of local crafts, cakes (like below!) and all perfect as gifts!
