Fundraising/ Family events
Each class is going to take responsibility for one event this year. Where possible the class responsible for organising the event has put next to the event in the list below. A number of fundraising events have already been carried out e.g. Book fair, calendar and cake sales are under-way.
A number of ideas were put forward for fundraising for the year and the following events were decided upon, with others possibly to be organised later.
