Christmas Cards - last order date 14th December

Your children have been working really hard to create some brilliant Christmas Artwork! The portal is now open online for you to order them. In addition to Christmas Cards, you can also order tea towels, mugs, key rings - even wrapping paper with your child's artwork!

For every sale, the school receives a commission, some of which will be going back to each class for their Christmas parties!

To order please visit the Parent Order Portal and use the login details on the flyer.

Thank you for your support!

Clubs
