Summer Fair Preparation - Week Commencing 18th May 2015 It’s that time of year again getting ready for the community Summer Fair. The fair is on Saturday 6th June 11am – 3pm. This year we are asking for children to bring in a donation for the stalls. When a child brings in a donation of chocolate, sweets or a full sealed bottle to the office for the Summer Fair during the week 18th to 21st May they will receive a raffle ticket. This will be drawn on Thursday 21st May in school for a prize. During this week we are also asking children to design the front cover of the programme. This has been a very successful competition for the past few years and the winning child will receive a great prize on the day of the summer fair.
