FOBS – Thank You

Dear Parents & Carers

FOBS would like to thank everyone who came to the Back to School BBQ.  It was a lovely evening and the children enjoyed all the activities.  With your generosity we raised a fantastic £285 that will go towards new equipment for the school.

We would also like to thank the Co-op for donating food and drinks and Doug, Georgiana and Jack for providing the entertainment.

Thank you again for your continued support.

Next event: Halloween Disco – Friday 21st October 3.30pm – 5.00pm

Back to School BBQ this Friday

Dear Parent/Guardian,
BACK TO SCHOOL BBQ – FRIDAY 30th SEPTEMBER 2016
4.30pm to 6.30pm

Just a reminder of FOB’s Back to School BBQ on Friday 30th September. Everyone is welcome. The event is free to all and children will enjoy free entertainment.

Fobs will be selling food and a bar will be open in return for donations. Food will consist of burgers and hotdogs, salad bar and cakes (vegetarian options will be available). The bar will sell light refreshment, beer and wine (all money raised will go towards new equipment for the school).

We are looking forward to seeing as many families and guardians as possible and to having a lovely social evening where the children will be able to have lots of fun and enjoy lots of different entertainment such as games, zumba and sports.

Thank you in advance for your continued support.

Incredible Edible Orchard

We have been awarded an Incredible Edibles Grant to plant an orchard.  This will be between the poly tunnel and dipping ponds (under construction), dwarf fruit tree varieties: apples, pears, Mirabella, plum, cherry, damson will be used.  And we plan to create a stepping stone path/trail between the trees.

On Saturday 16th May there is a working party to get the fruit trees planted.  From 12.00 midday, although some work will be started around 10.30.

Please come along and help dig, weed, plant or wheel barrow peat free compost, everyone is very welcome and the more the merrier.  Perhaps younger children can help plant up the raised beds with peas, beans, sweet peas, salad crops etc.

Really looking forward to a great day in the gardens and orchard.
