The Big Spotacular This year’s Children in Need appeal is focused around SPOTS. We would like to invite all Yewdale children to come to school on Friday 18th November wearing spots. This could be a spotty T-shirt or trousers, spotty pyjamas or a Children in Need spotty outfit. We ask that children wearing spots for the day bring in a £1 donation that will go directly to Children in Need. School Council will be selling spotty biscuits for 50p each at break time.

DATES FOR YOUR DIARY

Over the coming month Mr Lakin intends to make himself look more peculiar than normal. He will participate in Movember. Movember is an annual event involving the growing of moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of various cancers, such as prostate cancer. We just wanted to update all parents so, should they wish to contribute to the fundraising they are able to do so and reassure them that Mr Lakin does still have access to a razor! Should you wish to contribute please you’re your donation to Mrs Coulthard in the school office and the school will give all the contributions directly to the giving page on the Movember website. Mr Lakin assures us the more money raised the more ridiculous his ‘tash’ will become.

Facebook I am aware that parents use the PTA Facebook page, having seen the regularity of comments and number of views I believe this to be a positive method of communication. Therefore I have requested that a Facebook page be set up that the school can manage. Membership will be limited to parents of the school, but comments will be accessible to all. The same safeguarding rules will apply to Facebook as to all other facets of school business. The page is going through a couple of reforms and will be available from next week. Miss Pickthall will write to all parents next week to provide more information and next steps.
