What an amazing day for our PTFA community! πŸ’™

11 fantastic parents (and one very well-behaved dog, Ashton 🐾) took on our sponsored 5K walk for autism and we couldn’t be prouder.

We were welcomed back to school by our incredible children, who had made their own banners and cheered us in – such a special moment πŸ’™

A big thank you to our local community too!
Thank you Tesco Superstore for donating bottles of water, cake and biscuits for our post 5k refreshments!
We also raised over Β£40 during the walk from kind donations from residents and local businesses, with special thanks to Claudia for stopping to ask people to support us πŸ‘

So far, we’ve raised over Β£2,500 πŸŽ‰ (just over Β£2,400 after GoFundMe fees).

Thank you to everyone who has donated, shared, and supported us – it truly means so much πŸ’™ There is still time to donate if you would like to support us

Our newly appointed pupil voice have spoken and so we send out this gardening plea! Being a recently built school we are seeking items to begin our gardening journey for the children to enhance their learning whilst creating a calming space for all the children and teachers to benefit from.
If you can be of any assistance, whether items be new or second hand, we would love to hear from you! Thankyou so much!

🌟 School Amazon Wish List 🌟

We’ve put together an Amazon Wish List to help support our classrooms and the wider school. Teachers have identified and added these items as being genuinely useful for learning, activities, and day-to-day classroom needs.

Parents/carers, friends, and family members are very welcome to have a look, and if you’re able to purchase an item or own this item and are happy to donate this, it would be hugely appreciated. These lists can also be sent to any potential donor companies. Every contribution, big or small, makes a real difference to our pupils ❀️

The wish list also helps our PTFA understand what different classes need and require during the school year.

Thank you all so much for your continued support, it truly means a lot to us all.
