Our final Food for Thought Cookery Club was a great success!

Families came together for a fun-filled after-school club, cooking up a Speedy Lentil Curry and learning how to make healthy, delicious meals!

Parents Evening – and Fundraising with Sausage Butties!

We are very much looking forward to seeing you. 

We cant wait to be seeing you at one of our two parents’ evenings coming up:

• Wednesday 23^rd October – ten-minute appointments between 3:15 pm and 6:30pm
• Thursday 24^th October - ten-minute appointments between 3:15 pm and 5:15pm

In our first PTA meeting last week, we talked about fundraising and the mammoth task of trying to raise enough money to pay for coaches to take the children on a trip to Chester Zoo. As mentioned in an earlier newsletter, Miss El-Saiegh bid for free tickets and won, but the cost of the coaches is thousands.

A great suggestion was made about selling food on parents’ evening. Because children are able to wait in the hall while parents are with the teachers, we thought it would be nice if they could have their tea while they are there. This would be fun for the children, and make your lives easier as you wouldn’t have to worry about squeezing in their tea before or after. In fact – parents could eat while they wait too!

So, on both evenings, there will be for sale: sausage or veggie sausage butties, cake, biscuits, fruit, soft drinks. The prices are as follows:

Pork sausage or veggie sausage butty	Piece of cake	Small packet of biscuits	Piece of fruit	Cup of juice
£1:00	40p	40p	20p	30p

When you fill in the appointment request form, please let us know how many sausage butties you would like for your family if any, so we know how many to prepare. It would be very helpful if you could send in the form to class teacher by Wednesday 16^th October. This will give us time to organise appointments so that siblings are close together, get appoint times out to you, and buy sausages!
