Chocolate Raffle
To raise funds for the Pre-School we are holding a chocolate hamper raffle on 30th March this will be drawn following our Easter egg hunt with the children in the afternoon, and depending on the donations received there will be a hamper and other chocolate prizes to be won.
Please bring in your donations of chocolate items (eggs, bars, boxes) to the Pre-School before 30th March so that the prizes can be ready for the raffle.
Lunches
Some of our children are now enjoying their lunch in the school hall each day as part of their transition into School in September. If your child has a packed lunch please remember that sweets and chocolate bars are not permitted or any nut products as a child in the Pre-School has an allergy, these items will be removed from your child's lunch box prior to lunch. If you would like to book hot School lunches for your child you will firstly need to obtain a code from the School office, you will then be able to book and pay for any lunches in advance.
Book Bags
Books can be exchanged as little or often as you wish depending on how much your child is enjoying the book they have been given. Books are for enjoying at home with an adult.
