Please don’t

forget to sign up

to the PTA Events

website and

register to a class

We are very lucky at Stamford Green to have such an active PTA

with parents/carers always so energetically supported by teachers

and staff. We are also very fortunate to have such great support

from local businesses, whose generosity helps us to achieve our

goals.

A big thank you to all the parent volunteers, teachers and staff who

helped make our Fireworks, Christmas Cards, Christmas Disco and

the Christmas Market events last term so successful. We hope

everyone was able to participate in some of these activities and

enjoyed themselves.

There’s been lots more fun this term with Cushion Clubs and

popcorn galore and we have our brilliant annual Quiz Night on

22nd March; watch out for communications on this shortly.

As our school grows, it’s important we continue to be ambitious

with the events and activities we run, to support the school’s

exciting fundraising targets, and it’s equally important to have lots

of fun in doing so.

You will have seen the recent school communications regarding

the exciting developments for our new library and the current

‘Curiosity Corridor’ phase. This is only possible with the amazing

volunteer and teacher / staff support we receive at Stamford Green.

Here are some of the activities and tasks the PTA will undertake

this year - writing questions/challenges for our annual Quiz Night,

volunteering on the bar (at almost every event!) and/or BBQ,

running a stall/game at the Summer Fun Day, buying sparklers and

donuts for Fireworks Night...

How will you help to make great things happen for your child(ren)

at Stamford Green in 2019?

Project Atlantis - The mission continues!

Our big fundraising target is a new library to occupy the old KS2 cloakroom in the school, delivering an exciting

and inspiring space for children.

The vision for the library is a calm and creative area for learning, incorporating the water theme prevalent in

Epsom’s history and dominant in the Stamford Green emblem. We believe it will support all children in developing

a love of reading, fulfilling their individual potential during their time at Stamford Green. It will also be accessible

to our wider local community through our regular ‘Come and Play’ children’s play sessions.

In 2017 we finished Phase 1, which completed the structural re-configuration and decoration of the entrance

to the library, new toilets, a new group room and two new storage areas.

At the moment the Curiosity Corridor is taking shape which will transform the walkway to the new library.

The final phase is targeted for Easter 2019 and will see the main part of the new library under construction.

Marvellous Market

Thank you to Miss Bidwell, Hannah Coxon, Shelley Illingworth, Leigh Ann Herman, Rosie Campbell, Simon

Day and Jules Claridge for leading the organisation of our Christmas Market. We raised a fantastic £6,600.

Thank you to all the teachers/staff, parent volunteers and local businesses for their support at the event.

D.I.S.C.O.

Thank you to Georgina Preston, Shelley Illingworth, teachers and staff and

parent volunteers for the excellent annual Christmas Disco.

We hope the children enjoyed themselves.

Fabulous Fireworks

Thank you to Ciara Duffy and Sally Morgan for organising our

Fireworks display and to all the lovely teachers/staff and volunteers

who helped make the event such a success! It’s such a highlight

of the calendar and we hope everyone loved the display.

A big thank you for our...

Personal Agent Boards Thank you to everyone who agreed to host a Personal Agent

board advertising our Christmas Market event. It’s great

to publicise our event locally and The Personal Agent

continue to be a fantastic and generous supporter.

Last term we raised

a fantastic £14k, which

has supported Curiosity

Corridor and will help

us reach our goal for

the new library.
