Caring for others


As a caring school we believe in the importance of modeling our Christian values to the children. In our daily assemblies we have been talking about caring for others and sharing what we have with others. Last Friday the Macmillan coffee morning raised 443. The Harvest supper and sale of surplus fruit and vegetables raised 1060 for the Medic Assist charity and on Tuesday the elderly of the village received Harvest gifts and cards from the children. Tomorrow is Jeans for Genes day and the children and staff can wear any article of denim clothing to school (but should still wear their school sweatshirt) if they donate 1.00. We know that some of our pupils have already benefited from the genetic research which is supported by this charity. On Monday we have our final charity event for this half term - the 10 for 10 Charity which was started by a village family to raise funds for a rehabilitation centre for injured members of the armed forces. For a donation of 1.00 your child can wear red, white and/ or blue clothing instead of school uniform. Clothing should be warm enough to wear outdoors and we would still like the children to wear their sweatshirts. Thank you for all your contributions and support!
