To help raise money for St Oswald’s Hospice, we will be having a non-uniform day on Friday 23rd October. Children can mark this day by wearing a Halloween costume or by expressing themselves in their own way should they wish. We are asking for a £2 voluntary donation if your child is taking part in the non-uniform day. 🎃👻🎃
