Happy Half Term – October 2022

Dear Families.

Happy Half term!

Is it me or has it seemed a long one?

What wonderful church services we had this week. Harvest ended our focus on Generosity. We know you gave your time and the children gave their enthusiasm to what was a lovely celebration in both church settings.

Many thanks to all those who contributed so generously to our collections for the local food bank. I don’t have an overall figure as yet, but the total that I am so far aware of exceeds two hundred pounds which is amazing. Thank you!

While I know I am asking for further donations, I would like to ask for your help in a project we have supported for many years now. After half term we would like to put together our Christmas shoe boxes, please could you send in items, they don’t have to be new, as per the leaflets. We hope to prepare these as in the first days back after half term

Congratulations to Alice and William, one representative from each school, achieving a place in the top eight of the Cross Country this week. We are all so very proud of you! Well done!

Finally, enjoy half term and return safely a week on Monday….Sand Hutton Children, don’t forget your paper plate Halloween decoration. I can’t wait to see your creativity!

With every best wish,

Beverley Pawson
