Friends of Silkstone Common JI School

☀️ The summer fayre countdown is on & we need your support ☀️

Our Summer Fayre is nearly here, and we’re asking for your support to help make it a fantastic event for all of the children.

We would be very grateful for any of the following donations:

🎂 Cake donations (to be handed in on the 25th) - we need buns, bakes & cakes to sell on our refreshment stall.

🧸 Toy & teddy donations (drop in at reception before the 25th) – good quality, clean toys for our stalls and games.

🎟️ Raffle Tickets – please return all ticket stubs, money and any unsold tickets as soon as possible, the raffle will close on the 25th.

🙋 Helpers & volunteers – whether you can spare 10 minutes or a few hours, every bit of help makes a huge difference before, during and after the fayre.

We particularly need volunteers for:
Welly wanging 🥾
Splat the rat 🐀
Preloved toys 🧸
Tidying up after the event 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♀️

We dont want to have to cancel parts of the event so please fill the gaps wherever you can.
The greater the number of helpers, the more the volunteers can enjoy the fayre too.

If you can donate any items or volunteer your time, please hand donations into reception, contact a member of FSCS or sign up via the link below 👇🏻

Thank you all for your continued support, we couldn’t do it without you! ❤️

Can anybody help 🙏🏻

We are putting together some special packs for the Silkstone Common JI School new starters this year.

We’d like to gift tea bags, coffee & biscuits as part of these ☕️ 🍪
(They do have to be individually wrapped)

We have tried really hard to find a donation but we feel we’ve exhausted all our options & now looking for a local hero to come to our rescue & help us complete our packs.
We only have 20 new pupils joining in september so minimal amount required.
Get in touch if you or anyone you might know can help 🦸 💫 🦸‍♀️

🎟️ Summer raffle ticket reminder! 🎟️

There’s just over 1 week left to get those summer raffle tickets sold and handed back.
If you have any ticket stubs, money or unsold tickets at home, please return them to school or post to your nearest FSCS return address ready for next week.

If you think you can sell a few more, spare tickets are available from reception.

🌟 FSCS NEED YOUR HELP 🌟

Please take a look at our volunteer sheet for the summer fayre on 25th June.
If you can spare any time at all, it will help make the magic happen for the children.

Whether it’s just 10 minutes or an hour, every bit of support makes a difference.
We need help before, during and after the event, and volunteers can be parents, grandparents, siblings, friends, or other family members.

Many hands make light work, and we simply can’t do it without you. 💛

If you’re able to help in any way, please follow the link and add your name to the volunteer sheet.
Every volunteer helps us create a fantastic day for the children and our school community.

Thank you for your support! ☀️🎪🎉

As we prepare for our upcoming event, we’re looking for donations to help make it a success!

We are currently collecting:

🧸 Teddies – donations welcomed before the event.

🧁 Cakes/bakes/buns – to be dropped off on the morning of the event.

🍬 Sweets – to be donated over the next couple of weeks to help make our sweetie stall bigger & better than ever.
