FOSS UPDATE
FOSS UPDATE
In preparation of World Book Day celebrations this year and with 'reuse, reduce, recycle' in mind, a huge thank you to Sophie Akben, Lou Mackie and Georgia Turner for their impressive effort to find new homes for loads of really fantastic pre-loved outfits! A sprinkle of inflatable animals at a Friday pick up really should become a FOSS staple!
A thousand 'thumbs up' for the 2024 Silent Disco - 342 tickets sold this year for 'the best one yet!'
Thanks to all the children who came with their good vibes, excellent-as-always St Stephen's-style manners. A particular thanks to Ali, Debi and Tatiana for forming the core Silent Disco crew, and to the 30 volunteers who donated their time to help keep the children safe. It's this time commitment and enthusiasm from all involved that really makes it a pleasure to run these events!
The Silent Disco raised over £1.5k for the school. While FOSS continues to be able to support the school financially, our children continue to access resources that so many simply can no longer afford. Thank you to all our community for your support in all its shapes, forms and sizes.
The Bounceathon is our next big fundraiser - please get behind our challenge for every year to reach its £1,500 target! This year those funds will go toward the ever-important wellbeing services and sporting equipment. (See our poster below).
CAKE SALES
CAKE SALES
The FOSS Friday cake sale takes place every week in the playground after school. Last year it raised a staggering £5,700 for the school. Many thanks to everyone who donated and bought cakes.
As a reminder - in order to keep our whole school community safe we always ask that homemade or shop bought cakes do not contain nuts, coconut or sesame. Many shop bought cakes will say 'may contain nuts' and, given people bake in their homes, we can never guarantee the sale is completely 'nut free,' as traces may exist. Any cake bought at the sale is under parental supervision, not school supervision. Parents who give their children money to visit the sale are accepting parental responsibility (especially for Yr5 and Yr6 children whose parents may not be present at pick up). Children going to Stars on a Friday afternoon do not visit the cake sale, instead a cake is provided directly by Stars to children who would like to visit. Thank you in advance to everyone over this school year that will bake, buy and help make our cake sales succesful and safe.
Many thanks
The Cake Sale Team
