and we hope you had lots of fun

Thank you to all of you for supporting the event

You may not realise that each child has made a self-portrait line drawing in class. P.I.P. reproduces these drawings which form the main design of our yearly calendars and tea-towels, meaning each child is included in these group products. Besides this individual touch, the yearly calendar includes all handy term, holiday and inset dates up to next January, plus a bit of space for adding your own important days…..

As with all PIP events, all profits go directly to every child, and help us support the school's activities. Please help us by considering which of your relatives and friends would love the gift of seeing your child's friends and classmates each time they look up at a date, or dry their hands in the kitchen! And the PiP Aprons are in unisex black.

That’s Christmas Sorted !

Keep calm and carry on supporting PiP!

Dear Parents, Carers and Children

Hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and a Happy New Year.

We raised a record breaking £2800 at the Christmas Fair in addition to the money raised for Christmas Cards and Tea towels and Bags. Thank-you to everyone for supporting PiP events and initiatives.

As you would imagine, PiP have lots of exciting events planned. See our diary below. First dates for your diary are our ever popular Cake Sales on the Thurs 27th Jan (hosted by Year 4) and a Valentine Cake Sale on Thurs 17th Feb (Hosted by Reception).

For it's third year, a fantastic Bingo evening is been planned and new this term will be a Family Quiz night. Both events promise to be lots of fun - dates to be confirmed but keep logged on for all updates but leaflets in children's bags also.

We are very exciting to announce that we have joined a fundraising scheme working with the organic fruit and veg suppliers Abel and Cole. The prices are very reasonable and you can drop in and out of the scheme as you wish, no obligation. Watch out for details of the launch coming soon where you can see how the scheme works and ask any questions. Delivery is to the school and you simply pay for your order upfront and collect your delivery from school on the same day every week. The great news is that 25% of what you pay goes to the school and no waiting in for deliveries.

Toward the end of term we are holding a Community Auction. Your reps will speak to you about this and more info will of course follow. We have so many skilled and talented parents and children who could offer a service or product that could be bid for at an auction. For example, you might offer to cook a huge chocolate cake, you might know the Arsenal football team and ask them to sign a shirt! you might be able to make a delicious Indian meal, you might be able to walk someone's dog for a week, you might be able to clean a car, you might be able to devise a fitness routine to shed the Christmas pounds, you might love cleaning and offer a spring clean, you might offer to babysit.... the list of possibilities is endless.

We will hold an evening auction where you can bid for the fantastic Lots on offer. more to follow.

PiP is always looking for support so come along and get involved, come to one of our meetings or speak to your rep about how you can help.
