The Parents Association will be organizing a Christmas raffle this year. It’s a great event that the children have always enjoyed. The money raised from the raffle will go towards a sensory garden for the school. If anyone is in a position to donate a prize for the raffle please contact your class representative on the Parent Association or you can drop in a donation with Helen. We hope to be getting the raffle tickets printed in early December. If you are able to donate a prize we would be grateful if you can let us know by Friday 25th November.
