Christmas Carol Services
Ticket Allocation – Due to the size of the school hall we are restricted to the number of people that we can accommodate, therefore, we would like parents/carers to indicate which performance they will be attending and how many tickets they would like on the letter sent home on Wednesday and return to school as soon as possible. There will be a maximum of 2 tickets per family e.g. 1 ticket per performance or 2 tickets for one performance. If more tickets become available then they will be issued on a first come first served basis.
Dinner Money / Monies into School
Unfortunately, the office is continuing to receive lose money or envelopes without names which therefore makes it difficult to keep track of payments. It is important that all dinner money is sent into school on a Monday morning for the week ahead in a clearly labelled envelope with your child’s name and amount. Thank you for your co-operation with this matter.
