Greetings
Hello everyone,
What an amazing Summer Fair we had on Saturday 11th June 2022.
Thank you to everyone who came along and enjoyed the summer fair, we hope you all had a great time.
We also have a special announcement at the bottom of the update so make sure you keep reading!

Royal Summer Fair
We had an absolutely amazing summer fair and we can’t thank everyone enough for all their support. We were lucky with the weather (we’ll ignore the wind that made it difficult for some of the gazebos).
Thank you to everyone who came the evening before to help put up our beer tent, competition tent, carried tables and chairs and put them where they were needed, without your help we couldn’t have put the fair on.
Another thanks to our stall holders who turned up and sold some fabulous products. All the products looked amazing.
If anyone would like to have stalls at any of our future events and would like to be put on our contact list, please email us and we’ll pop you on the list for future events.
We need to thank our special guest Rob Hutchinson and his daughter Eliza from Rob Hutchinson Magic who came and did some walk around magic and some amazing balloon animals. Unfortunately, our other special guest Miss Galaxy North Yorkshire had caught COVID a few days before the fair and was unable to make it, but she has seen pictures of the Early Years children and said they all looked amazing so she was disappointed to have missed it. Thank you to Canon Ailsa who opened our fair and had the difficult job of judging the Early Years royal fancy dress parade.
Thank you to all our volunteer parents, carers, teachers, support staff and former staff for coming and running a stall, cooking burgers and sausages, pouring a pint or 2 and just generally making the running of the fair go smoothly. Without your help we couldn’t do the fair.
Also a big thank you goes to everyone who donated raffle/tombola prizes, cuddly toys, jolly jars, books, toys, cakes and more. Without these donations we wouldn’t be able to raise the amount of money that we did! So thank you.
And the grand total is....
A massive MASSIVE thank you to everyone who came out and supported the fair. Here is the big announcement that you are all waiting for! The grand total of what we raised for the school:
Summer Disco!
Yes, that is right our summer disco is back!
It has been two and a half years since we have had a school disco! Our last one was Christmas 2019!
So we couldn’t be happier to announce that we will be having a summer disco on
FRIDAY 8TH JULY 2022.
EYFS & KS1 (Nursery, Reception, Year 1 & 2) - 5:30pm -6:30pm
KS2 (years 3, 4, 5 & 6) - 6:45pm - 7:45pm
£1.50 entry - pay on the day (correct money if possible please).
We do require parents/carers stay in the hall for the EYFS & KS1 disco. Parents/carers can stay in the parent room for the KS2 disco if they would like.
We are asking if you can bring correct change where possible:
Snacks – 30p
Drinks – 20p
Glitter tattoos – 50p
We can’t wait to see everyone in their party outfits ready to disco once again!
If anyone is able to help out at the disco, we would be extremely grateful. We need glitter tattooists (we provide the glitter, you will go home sparkling!), snacks and drinks sellers and people to take entry money and just to make sure everyone is safe. Please get in touch with one of the Friends in the playground or speak to the school.
