Green Team (School Council)
The Green Team met for the first time last week and did a meet and greet around the table so the team could get to know each other.
This week they already have plans to discuss about compost.
Harvest Festival: For our Harvest Assembly we will be collecting food donations for the Foodbank at Tesco who then donate it to the local Foodbanks for people who are struggling. If you can help with this worthwhile cause, please bring in any of the items detailed on the little Foodbank hand-out to help these families in crisis. Your kindness is very much appreciated. The Harvest Assembly itself will be held at 9:15 on Wednesday 12th October at the Stalham Baptist Church. We hope you can be there to join in the celebrations. Many thanks.
PTFA: The PTFA are holding their Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Thursday 13th October at 3:10pm in the school hall. Letters have gone out to you all with full details. The more people that can join in, the more we can do for the children in this school. Everyone is welcome to join at this meeting, please come along if you can. Thank you.
