Urgent Message from the PTA

Hi everyone 👋

Unfortunately, due to circumstances outside of our control, we’ve had to cancel the Easter Disco that was due to take place on 23rd April.

We know this will be disappointing, and we’re really sorry for any inconvenience caused. The good news is that we’re planning to reschedule it for after half term, and we’ll share the new date as soon as it’s confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support 💛

Send us your song requests! Our amazing DJ for the Easter disco wants to play as many requests as possible, so please pop your children’s song requests in a comment below along with their year group! See you there!

The Pancake Flip is BACK, and it’s going to be batter than ever!

On Tuesday 24th February, all children will be taking part in our much-loved annual Pancake Flip, seeing how many flips they can manage on the day. 🥞✨

Sponsorship forms have gone out this week, and every pancake flipped helps raise vital funds to support educational trips that expand children’s cultural awareness.

Please return completed sponsorship forms and any money raised to class teachers by Friday 27th February.

Haven’t received a sponsorship form or prefer to donate online? You can still support the event by donating here:
👉 https://pay.sumup.com/b2c/Q99TRBB7

We know the children are already looking forward to it — it promises to be some egg-cellent, flipping good fun! 🥚

We’re also looking for a few volunteers to help on the day. If you’re able to spare a little time, we’d love your support. It’s a great chance to see the children in action and be part of a brilliant school event.

If you can help, please get in touch at [email protected]
— we’d love to have you on board!

🌟 PTA AGM – We Need You! 🌟

Our PTA raised over £10,000 last year for the school — funding resources, equipment, and events that benefit all our children.

We’re looking for new trustees and volunteers to help keep things running — roles include Chair/Co-Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, and Treasurer.

📅 AGM: Wednesday 15th October, 7pm at the school (open to all)

You don’t need special skills — just enthusiasm, ideas, and a little time. Full support will be given.

📧 Look out for an email coming soon with more details and role profiles.

Together, we can keep making great things happen for our school community! 💙
