Today we sent out a letter explaining that we are supporting Oxfam this year and will be helping to look after our planet. This year in Reception could we ask that you do not purchase cards for the children, instead it will be much nicer if the children design their own very special 'class' card for either Athens or New York class. We have sent home a blank card along with the letter for your child to use for this purpose. These cards will be displayed in the classroom for all the children to admire and we feel that this will be promoting a more creative approach to Christmas.
As a school we have decided that we would like to collect donations for the charity Oxfam, so any monies that you would have spent on cards you could donate to our chosen charity.
If you would like to make a donation then please put it in an envelope with your child's name and class clearly marked; labelled Christmas card donation and hand it in to one of the adults in in the Reception base.
Thanks again...
The Reception Team
