week commencing 6th August

Olympics party

We are raising money for the children’s Charity Crackerjacks by holding an Olympic party on Thursday 9^th August.

We will be asking everyone who is in on that day to wear sports clothes and donate £1 (or more if you like) to the charity. We will be having an Olympic party in the afternoon and be taking part in our own Olympic events! Crackerjacks Children’s Trust, are committed to offer help and assistance to any child, or their family who have suffered a severe disability. To learn more about the charity you can visit  www.crackerjacks.org.uk

Lost property

We have lots of lost property clothing in the hallway, please can you have a look and see if there is anything that belongs to your child. Anything not claimed will go in to our spare clothing. Sunflowers also has lots of toys in their red toys from home box. Please can everyone have a look and claim anything that is yours, thank you.
