All monies raised so far this year has gone towards the purchasing of resources and organising school activities which each student has benefitted from. Your child would have received a sponsorship card and we ask you to return this card by Friday 19th June. There will be a special prize in each room for the most money raised. Thank you for continued support and generosity.
