Easter 2021
JOIN OUR EASTER HUNT to WIN ONE OF TEN EASTER EGGS - starts 22nd MARCH!
From 22nd March to 18 April, families from the school will be hiding giant letters in the windows of their homes. Using our special Easter hunt map, your challenge is to find all 12 and use them to make an Easter themed phrase for a chance to win one of 10 Easter eggs. The first letter will be in the window of the school hall on Beaver Road.
When you have found all the letters and worked out the Easter phrase, send your answer to beaverrdfundraisers@outlook.com by 6pm 18 April and we'll enter you into a draw to win an Easter Egg. The draw will take place on 19th April.
To get a copy of the map simply make a donation (suggested amount £3 per family) at justgiving.com/campaign/BeaverRoadEasterEggHunt and check your receipt for a link to the map. Note: you need to copy and paste it into your browser to view it.
Thanks to all the families volunteering to make this event possible.
FREE TREATS FOR EVERYONE WHO TAKES PART!
To celebrate the opening of its newly refurbished café on Wilmslow Road, Didsbury, Bisous Bisous will give every family who takes part a free croissant or pain au chocolat for every hot drink purchased. Babychinos are free too! Simply show the receipt for your Easter hunt donation in store. Find the shop opposite the library in the village.
Note one redemption per family. Offer runs 22 March to 18 April.

Take part in our colouring competition and win!
Mrs Horan has launched a colouring competition for everyone to take part in. You can be as imaginative as you like and use everything from collage to pencils to decorate your egg. There are lots of designs to choose from. If you don't have a printer, then tell your teacher who will ask Mrs Horan to print off the design you want to do.
Give your entry to your teacher with £1 by 29th March. Make sure your name and class is on the BACK as the entries will be judged blind.
Mrs Reeves will select winners on 30th March. We have two super coluring books and pencil sets as prizes - one for the First school and one for the Junior school. Mrs Reeve will also choose a runner up in each year - they will win an Easter egg.
GOOD LUCK!
