🐣🐰 SPRING FAYRE 🐰🐣

What an amazing week of celebrations and fundraising - look at all these happy faces enjoying the fayre yesterday 🥳
Personally, I (Karen) have missed the full week due to isolating, and I am beyond gutted to have missed it all, but I want to say a massive thank you and well done to the rest of the Parent Council team and helpers who have poured so much blood, sweat and tears into the event to make this week a success and they have absolutely smashed it! 💪
I am very pleased to announce, over the full week they have raised over £300!!

It's no secret that the last couple of years have been extra tough and our funds were starting to run low as a result of that, but these new funds will help massively so thank you all very much.

And of course a huge thank you to the staff who helped run the fayre too and who helped us rally together some prizes 🎁

Today the kids will take part in an egg hunt, organised by the Parent Council and each pupil will receive a free treat at the end of it.

Happy Easter Team Newton 🐰🐣🍫
