A message from the Parent Council:
Due to current circumstances, sadly we have beeen unable to fundraise as we normally would. However, our children, school and families still rely on these funds to contribute to school activities, and help our school community when extra support is needed. We are so grateful for all the previous fundraising contributions and hope that this can continue. Any amount, no matter how small would be so appreciated via our new Just Giving page and really help with plans for the forthcoming year. If you wish to make a donation, please click the link below:
