We have EXTENDED the deadline date for the above appeal to Friday, 9 th November to give everyone the
opportunity to bring along their filled and decorated shoe boxes. If you would like further details
regarding this charity event then please visit www.smileinternational.org.
Winter Coats
With the winter weather now upon us, it is important that every child brings in a school coat/raincoat
each day. Even if the weather precludes playing outside during break times they will still need warm and
water proof clothing to move between buildings, especially at lunch times.
