Bowker Vale Primary School

It’s Pantomime time this week! All of the children will be enjoying the show ‘Sleeping Beauty’ on Wednesday morning in our school hall. There is no charge for the show this year, we are using our school fund to pay for the show. School fund is always spent directly on the children to benefit them in some way. Thank you for supporting our events where we raise money for the school fund. We are currently collecting 5 pence pieces!

Can we ask for a donation on Friday next week to help towards our Christmas Fair on the 10^th December? Could Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and 2 bring in cakes for our café please? Could KS2 bring in any kind of bottle please? This could be a bottle of –

• Wine
• Pop
• Juice
• Shampoo
• Washing up liquid
• Liqueur
• Spirit
• Any other bottle you can think of!

Thanks in advance!

Instead of sending Christmas cards to each other, each year the staff donate what they would have spent on cards to ‘Save the Children’ and wear their Christmas Jumpers on Friday 13^th December. Would you like to join us? Would your children? Everyone is welcome to join in Christmas Jumper Day – donations collected in the bucket kept at the office.

Finally a reminder that school is closed to children on Thursday 12^th December as we are open to the public all day from early morning til late at night as a Polling Station for the General Election.
