Hello everyone! We’re planning for our Spring Ball and other fundraising activities, and our prize pot is looking a little bit sad. Have you got something lovely sitting unused that would make a wonderful raffle prize? Or maybe you’re a local business and you feel able to make a donation in exchange for lots of thanks, in person, and on social media, long with the warm fuzzy feeling of having helped a local primary school. If you can help us, we would be extremely grateful, and so would the kiddies. ♥️

(Feel free to share this post!)

THANK YOU!!!! (and more help needed!!)

For your support of the Christmas secret shopper and to the parents who generously gave up their time to help our children choose their gifts today - Nicola, Emily, Claire, Harbir, Jen and Louise.

We raised approximately £1,000 in profits for the school. Thank you so much.

Only 9 more sleeps to our upcoming Bazaar!! Lots of help is still needed. Let us know if you can help! Even a spare 30 minutes would be much appreciated.

This is a desperate plea from an increasingly stressed PTA. We’re shrinking in numbers and really struggling to provide the usual range of games and stalls at the Christmas Bazaar because we don’t have enough volunteers. We want to make the day enjoyable for everyone, so if you can help in any way, please respond either here or in class WhatsApp groups- THANK YOU 🙏

We also need donations of bottles, chocolate, books, games, toys and cuddly toys. Because we don’t have a lot of storage, this will need to be dropped off at school in the days leading up to the Bazaar, but please do help if you can.

We know that the run up to Christmas is a very busy time - we’re parents too! But any help you give means more profit for the PFA which benefits ALL the children at St Joseph’s. We hope you can help. Thanks so much to those who are helping us already ###

Have you ordered your Secret Shopper gifts yet? This is such a lovely experience for the children, they really do think hard when they make their choices. 🥰
Plus, it’s a little surprise for Christmas morning which can only be a good thing!
Please support us as we raise money for the children!

We still need your help to make this day a success. Can you spare any time?
