As the school year comes to an end on behalf of everyone at FROGs I'd like to thank you all for your support!!

Unfortunately we will be losing some key members of the PTA (💔😭) and I for one would like to thank them all for making me feel so welcome to the PTA family and their guidance and support. You will be missed by so many, especially me.

In the new school year we will be holding an AGM and if you'd like to join the PTA please do come along, many hands make light work, even if you cannot attend every meeting there's plenty of jobs available behind the scenes

Have an amazing memory making summer holiday!! And remember our inbox is always open if you have any questions or suggestions

Ever wondered why you should join us?

Reminder: PTA end of year meeting tomorrow, 14th July at 7pm – Bure Farm, all welcome!!

If you've ever wondered how you can get involved come on down to say hello!

Reminder: there is a meeting tonight at school regarding the summer fayre. If you are able to volunteer or would like to see if you can help please do come along, tonight 7pm at school.

Don't forget to return your RVSPs by this Friday!!

Don't forget it's Frozen Friday today ☀️🧊🍦

Pop up ice pops and cold drinks outside Early Years from 1pm today just 50p each!!

Please bring your change 🙏 ☺️

Any football fans?

Our next raffle prize at the summer fayre has been donated by none other than MK Dons 🥳⚽️

Massive thank you to Buckingham Railway Centre for the generous donation to our summer fayre raffle

Another urgent plea (sorry!):

Please do not give any PTA forms, return slips or money to the teachers or the office.

All PTA items must be given to your class rep to avoid missing out.

We give deadlines on all returnables as we on the PTA are all volunteers that all have jobs outside of school

🙏 Urgent appeal, volunteers needed 🙏

With temperatures set to be hot this Friday, the PTA will be back outside early years at collection time selling ice pops and cold drinks, all just 50p each.

Where possible, please can we as that you bring correct change as it will help us keep the queue moving.

This week we will be selling push up ice pops!!

Thanks so much

Kind regards

FRoGS

Thank you to everyone who has returned their forms and payment.

If you have chosen to pay via BACS please can you check your account as we have received a few forms without payment.

Feedback wanted please

We'd love to hear from you regarding the bingo

Should we run another one?

If you didn't come, what would change your mind to come?

Wow what can I say (or not as my voice is going🙈😬) thank you everyone that came and supported our first ever Bingo night!!

All feedback welcome 🙏 🤗

Shall we do it again some time?? 😊😳🤣

Who's ready to win some yummy chocolate 🥰

This is just a few (!!) of the raffle prizes for tomorrow night 😳 this doesn't include the vouchers I've got printed!!!

And the tickets are JUST 50pence per strip 🤯😱

Please spread the word!!

This Friday is the school's first and potentially (and sadly) the last Bingo night we will be holding at school as unfortunately as it currently stands the turn out is very quiet :(

If you can come, please do! It takes a lot of time and organising behind the scenes to put these events together and we have had some incredible donations from local businesses and it is all to raise funds for our children.

We will be having an interval after game four where refreshments and snacks will be available, and if you feel it is getting too late and you wish to leave you can.

We as a committee decided to test the water with a bingo night where prizes were won instead of money as there is special licenses required for cash prizes and we wanted to make it family friendly.

Times running out to get your tickets 😊
Invite your friends, family and work colleagues, all money raised is for the school 🥰

EASTER BINGO THIS FRIDAY!!!!

Tickets are just £5 per person which includes all 8 games!!

Everyone is welcome and all money raised is for the school, so grab your friends, family and neighbours!!!

As well as lots of yummy chocolate here's a list of the amazing raffle prizes up for grabs in the interval this Friday (tickets are just 50pence per strip!!! BARGAIN!!)

Teamsports karting voucher
Littlebury Hotel Sunday Roast for two
Banbury Bowl vouchers
A drill from Blanchford building supplies
Flip Out Aylesbury vouchers
Nolan Oil voucher
Wine and Jack Daniels

Please do buy your tickets in advance so we can cater for the correct number. Non players welcome to come as well so bring the kids.

Drinks, sweets, biscuits and nibbles available during the interval.

Cash flyer will be available on the night (£1), adult only game, with a cash prize!!

I'm usually outside early years from 8.15am so come see me or Lynda to get your tickets. (I'm not there Thursday morning) I have a black, white and red shopping bag with me 😊

Feel free to PM me with any questions.

Don't forget your Bingo tickets 😊 available every morning outside early years

£5 per person

Friends, family and children welcome!!

This Friday 29th April!!

Doors open at 6pm 👀 eyes down at 6.30pm

Sharing on behalf Perch Eco Business Centre Bicester

We hope all the children enjoyed the entertainer on Thursday!!

Have a wonderful Easter break from all us 🐸

Please feel free to bag up any washed but outgrown school uniform and bring to school with you the first week back. Please give them to your class rep 🙏

Tomorrow, Thursday 7th April, the children will be entertained by Aaron Williams, as a little treat from all of us at the PTA. Our way of thanking everyone for their support.
We hope the children enjoy and have lots of fun!!

Thank you to the parents and guardians that came to our impromptu Cake Sale this afternoon.

As a PTA our goal this year is to raise funds for the playground, starting with outside seating / picnic tables to encourage outside learning, so we really are grateful of your support.
