FOPs News – November

18 October 2019 By Sue

At the FOPS AGM held recently, we officially announced the total figure that was raised over the course of the last academic year to be a whopping £7,536, which equates to £75 per child! As we always say - this is only possible due to a huge commitment and effort from parents & the wider community. Special thanks, of course must once again go to Payhembury Provisions, who generously donated £2,300 towards our grand laptop appeal. AGM news: George Searle stood down as co-chair of FOPS at the meeting. George's pragmatic & focused …

School Disco

9 March 2019 By Sue

 Everyone who came along to the school disco last week seemed to have a brilliant time - some great dancing, fun & games (and that was just from the teachers!). Thank you to Rob Elsom for his brilliant DJ-ing, and to all the children for keeping the dancing going. We must have beaten a world record for the biggest (and longest!) game of musical statues. An amazing total of £323 was raised on the evening - what a great way to kick start our Grand Appeal for new laptops. Thank you all for your support …

FOPs Update – July 2018

9 July 2018 By Sue

The end of year disco is rapidly approaching - please see below for details. This is our last event of the year (we aren't organising a Kidz Café) and have tried to keep costs down to enable as many children as possible to come. The DJ for the evening is Rob Elson - Sam's dad! He demo-ed for us at the Easter Bingo and we thought he was good enough to invite back! We would like to decorate the hall - if you have any disco lights or similar we could borrow we would be really grateful. As with all events, we rely on volunteers so if you could …

May Day Fair Success

4 June 2018 By Sue

What a fantastic day we had for our annual May Day Fair. The children, the weather and even the dogs were brilliant. We are so lucky to have such community support for our school events and we are sure all those that came had a great time.

We are still finalising figures, so will report the exact amount in a future newsletter. A huge well done and thank you to all who came, to all the volunteers (it can't happen without …
