Good morning,

Today is Red Nose Day! The children are encouraged to wear something red but are welcome to attend in non uniform of any colour. We hope you are able to give a small donation to support this worthy charity.

Mrs. McEwan-Wright will be selling daffodils in the playground at 3.15pm today, for £1 per bunch. This was very popular last year!  All proceeds go to Elvington Scouts.

Primrose Sale

 

A huge thank you to Mrs Palmer and Mrs Atolagbe for arranging and running the Primrose stall last week. A massive £150 was raised for the PTA.

We are very grateful for the time and effort the PTA put into fundraising events. Money raised helps the school immensely in many ways, including the rental of the school iPads.

Marathon Fundraising Update – non uniform day

Thank you all so much for your support for the non uniform day held last Friday. It was lovely to see all the children being gloriously unique. In total we raised an amazing £203.40 . On a personal level it is lovely to have the children interested and engaged in my training for the marathon and their support inspires me on the long training runs which are now increasing as we get closer to 21st April. Thank you again.

Best wishes,Mrs Leach

Non Uniform Day – Reminder

Good afternoon,

Just a reminder that this Friday 23rd we are celebrating what makes us unique by having a non uniform day. There is a suggested donation of £1 per child. The money raised will be added to my London Marathon fund raising total for the PTA.

Cash donations or donations on my Just Giving page are welcome on or before the day.

My Just Giving page is https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/jane-leach-1

Please be aware, if using page, that there is a set minimum donation by Just Giving of £2. Also, please note you do not have to add a tip on the Just Giving page, it can be set to zero, as this does not reduce any fees that we pay for having the page.

Any cash donations will be collected from the children in class on Friday morning.

Thank you to those who have already donated and I look forward to seeing the children in all their glory on Friday.

Best wishes,Mrs Leach
