A big thank you to the FOAH for organising a wonderful Father’s Day present room last week. As always we all appreciate the hard work that goes into organising these events for the children. I’m pleased to see so many of you have bought tickets for the grand raffle. There are some fabulous prizes to be had and you really do have to be ‘in it to win it’. The raffle will be drawn on Tuesday 4^th July so please ensure your tickets have been brought in by Thursday 29^th June at the latest.

FOAH held their AGM Monday evening where several members resigned as their children will be leaving the school at the end of the term. I wanted to remind parents of the excellent job that they do which is two-fold. Firstly, they hold regular events that the children really enjoy such as the silent disco, film nights and present rooms but they also raise a huge amount of money that is used to improve every child’s experience for example, replacing the interactive screen in the computer suite to improve teaching and learning in this room and purchasing indoor and outdoor play equipment for the children to enjoy at lunch times. I am delighted that two members from our Parent Forum have offered to join FOAH and I would really like to urge parents to consider volunteering to help and please be assured, you can support on your own terms – as little as often as you can manage.
