Dear All,

The Summer Fayre on Friday was really well attended and we raised a gross total of £1139.98!

Thank you to everyone who attended, thank you very much to the Friends of St Woolos who helped beforehand and on the day and also to parents and staff for donations of gifts and prizes.

Thank you also for supporting the Nursery Welly Throw held recently. The final total is £175.00 and this money will be used to buy play items for the Nursery.

Well done to Class 1/2DJ for their lovely Class Assembly on Friday! It was good to see so many parents at our assembly and we were also joined by Mrs Mollard and Mrs Trevelyan from BHS who helped with the fundraising for the ‘Green Screen’ equipment used for the assembly.

Your child has brought home their proof photograph today. Please return orders by

Monday 22nd June. There is no obligation to buy a photo and you are able to keep your proof if you choose not to buy one.

Our Healthy Week starts today and there are a number of healthy living activities taking place.
