Christmas Film Nights Please see the flyer below for our Festive Film Night - next Wednesday, 18th December. Film choices for each class are below. Maple - Frozen Beech and Ash - Klaus Key Stage Two - Home Alone Please book your child's place by making payment on Scopay. Deadline is 3.30pm on Monday 17th December. All pupils should be collected from the playground at 5pm in the same way as on a normal school day. Please bear in mind that it will be a bit trickier for the adults to identify parents, so please be patient and make sure you are as visible as possible. Year 5/6 pupils are not allowed to walk home independently after this event as it will be dark. Please note that this a change to our planned Christmas activities, replacing the Christmas Tale evening that was advertised for Thursday 19th December. There is no Tree House provision on Wednesday 18th December.  Elfridges is Back! What is Elfridges? Elfridges is a secret shop run by "Elves" at school during school hours where children can purchase Christmas gifts for loved ones without their grown-ups. How does it work? In exchange for festive themed dress-down-day on Friday 6th December, we kindly ask children to bring donations to the Elfridges sale. Any grown-up presents are fine e.g. candles, cosmetics, clothes, jewellery, books etc. (no alcohol or glass bottles please). "Elves" will sort through the donations and set up shop. Monday 9th and Tuesday 10th December the shop will be open, and each child will be given an opportunity to buy a gift for their grown-up. £3 per gift (cash only; maximum 2 presents per child). "Elves" will wrap the presents for the children, who then can bring it home and place under the Christmas tree. *For the younger children (Maple, Beech, Ash) please put the money in the envelope together with a note who they are buying for (e.g. Mum, Dad, Grandmother) – Elves will then help them to choose an appropriate gift. This was a truly enjoyable event in 2023. Let's make it even better this year! Best wishes, The School Association  Did you know that 1 in 4 Christmas jumpers are thrown away and never worn again?! Let’s change that... Bring your old/unwanted (children or adult) Christmas jumpers to school (children to drop off on table in the school hall) on 20th and 21st November and donate it to our sale. The elves from the School Association will sort everything and run the sale on 22 November at collection time (3.15pm). Only £3 per jumper! Cash or card accepted.
