THE GREAT NEWHAM SWIM
Oliver Cunningham, 10 Southwell, is doing a charity swim, The Great Newham Swim, on the 16th July 2016. It is the first time Oliver has ever tried open water swimming and swimming in the Thames so this is going to be a huge challenge for him.

MUSIC
Practice makes perfect. Learning an instrument is great for co-ordination, integrating physical and mental activity, using creativity and imagination and learning to learn. but only with PRACTICE!! Start your regular practice routine today, if you have not already done so. It is only 10 minutes a day for grades 1-3. How about 7.30 in the morning before you catch the bus? How about straight after tea before you start your homework! When are you doing your practice? Come and tell us. C O’Hanlon Music Department

NEWS FROM THE PARENTS’ ASSOCIATION
SILENT AUCTION
Signed memorabilia, vouchers, services, holidays, Red Letter experiences – this is new this year so please be generous and donate what you can.
The Parents’ Association has had the idea of running a silent auction during the school’s annual Sports Day & Garden Party to help raise funds for the school. In order to determine if this would be a feasible/viable fund raising activity to pursue we need to be able to quantify the types of items or services we can auction, examples are as below: Are you a hairdresser - could you donate a free cut & blow dry?
Are you a beautician – could you donate a free beauty treatment, nails painted, massage etc?
Are you a gardener – would you be willing to tidy up someone’s garden?
Would you be willing to do some ironing for someone, or walk their dogs?
Do you have a signed ball or shirt you may wish to pass on?
Do you work anywhere that could donate a prize, cinema tickets, theatre tickets, activity centres, restaurants?
Other ideas would include: MOTs, Dog Grooming, Driving Lessons, Golf Rounds
The list is endless…………….
If you have a skill or service you are will to provide/offer free of charge that we can auction at the annual Garden Party
could you please contact Lucy Parham on [email protected] ADVENTURE ISLAND WRISTBANDS
We have discounted wristbands which are ideal for birthday outings or to keep the kids occupied during school holidays. To buy on the day you would be charged £28 but you can buy from us for only £16, a saving of £12 per wristband!
