Mrs. Rees and Scool council have been concerned that we have not been able to meet regularaly due to other commitments. After discussion with Mrs. Brown it was decided that we will make sure we have our fortnightly meetings at 2.30 on Tuesdays. Mrs. Brown kindly agreed to take Y4 library session so we can meet. Thank you Mrs. Brown!

Jeans for Genes - An amazing £239.00!
A large collecxtion for Children in Need.
The Poppy Appeal. Thankyou Peter for all your hard work and the amazing wreath.
Shoe boxes. This has been very successful with the new approach. A huge variety of items were brought in and a group of very kind parents spent the morning of November 10th sorting and wrapping. Thank you all....The boxes look amazing!

New projects. Now we are part of the B.E.T. Academy we will be exploring ways we can link up with Spetisbury and ArchBishop Wake Schools to develop our bond and move forward together.
Action. School Council will collect ideas from classes about activities they would enjoy sharing with the other schools.
