Raffle - Free School Meals

Thu 01 Nov 2018

If you think your child may be eligible for a Free School Meal then it is vital that you complete a Free School Meal form. Schools are eligible to receive additional funding in relation to this which is vital for us in order to be able to purchase resources for school. Throughout next week these forms will be available from the school office and for each fully completed form a raffle ticket will be issued. You will need to complete a new form if you have completed one in the past to be able to enter our draw. The raffle will be drawn on Friday 9^th November and the winner will receive an All New Fire HD 8 Kids Edition Tablet. Good luck to all entries!
