The PTA have arranged for both the Infant and Junior schools to have a non-uniform day on Friday 17 May. In return, they are asking parents/carers to donate items for their Summer Fair (taking place on 7 June). They will be splitting donations between their popular hamper raffle and items that can be given as prizes on stalls.

They are asking for donations of items up to the value of £2 to be brought into school on Friday 17 May. They would also welcome any unwanted good quality items above that value that you may wish to donate.

Each year group has been given a theme for items to bring in, as follows:

Donations should be taken to classrooms on the day.

Thank you for your support.

The NSPCC visited our school this week and delivered their Speak out. Stay safe assembly to share information with children about how they can keep themselves safe from harm and get help if they have any worries.

As a charity, the NSPCC can only provide vital resources thanks to the financial support and generosity of their supporters. That's why the School Council have decided to raise money to help the NSPCC's work.

Children will be taking part in a fundraising activity focused on maths. They have been given a 'Buddy's meaningful maths' sponsor pack. The children should choose one of the lists shown under 'Option 2' on the inside page of the booklet - they will be tested on these questions on Thursday 2 May.

Participation is voluntary, but if you would like to support the NSPCC's work, it would be fantastic if you could give your child permission to take part by signing the sponsor form and returning the form and money raised to school by Thursday 9 May.

Full details are available in the 'NSPCC letter' here.

A letter has gone home with all pupils today about appropriate and safe parking around the school site.

We encourage parents and carers to walk or park and stride to school whenever possible. When coming by car, we ask that they park safely and with consideration for our neighbours.

The full letter is available at www.kingsfurlong.net/whole-school. Please also see our park and stride map and information about travelling to Kings Furlong at www.kingsfurlong.net/travelling-to-kfjs.
