Half-term News

‘Feel the Love for Harry Banks’

Thank you to everyone who went along to support the charity fundraiser ‘Feel the Love for Harry Banks’ on Sunday at Severn Social.  As many of you will be aware, Harry is Miss France’s cousin and it was fantastic to see so many parents and families there, not just parents of children in the choir, but other families who went along to support the event.

The choir sounded amazing and many people stayed until tea-time to watch Miss France perform with her band The Weekenders.  I haven’t heard yet how much they raised on Sunday but the auction alone raised £2,000 which I know Harry’s family were completely blown away by.

We will be holding a non-uniform day in the next few weeks to raise further funds for Harry’s treatment and if you wish to find out more information about Harry and his condition, please visit: www.madaboutharry.org

Valentine’s Disco 

Thank you to everyone who came along to the Valentine’s disco and especially to the FOBS mums and other adults for all their hard work in organising the event. It raised an incredible £405!

World Book Day – Thursday 7th March

 

World Book Day is almost upon us and we would love all children and staff to come to school or nursery dressed as a book character of their choice.  We can’t wait to see everyone’s outfits! Next week, children will be given a £1 World Book Day voucher to spend at a range of retailers including W H Smith and Waterstones.

Enjoy the rest of half term.
