The Working WeekTrust survey on use of school websitesThe Trust are conducting a survey around the use of school websites from the perspective of parents, carers and the wider community and would value your contribution to this survey https://forms.office.com/e/6DQUBr6BBf. Please note the deadline for responses is 23.1.23. After-school clubsAfter school clubs start this week and will run for 3 weeks each side of half term. Bookings can be made through your school gateway accounts. The SnowThank you to you all for your patience and consideration on Tuesday when we needed to have a late start due to the icy conditions. I know many children made the most of the extra hour at home to get out and play in the snow and we managed to find a little time for play at school too! Crazy Hair DayHi I’m Flo, I’m 11 years old and I’m in year 6. I have had long hair for all of my life and it now reaches my waist. I’ve decided to cut all of it off and donate it to the Little Princess Trust. The Trust is a charity that produces real hair wigs for children and young adults who have lost their hair through cancer treatment and other conditions. As well as providing wigs to people, they also support life- saving research and development of less aggressive and less toxic cancer treatments. It costs the charity £550 to make a wig, and as well as donating my hair, I would like to help the charity raise as much of the money needed to make a wig as possible. To raise money, I would like to hold a crazy hair/hat themed day, on Friday 27th January, at the school for a minimum suggested donation of £1 per child. If you would like to donate more, the school would be happy to collect it, every 50p counts. Thank you for your support in helping me raise money for this important cause. If you would like to find out more about this charity you can visit their website at www.littleprincesses.org.uk .
