Quiz Night – 12th March 2016

Our Quiz Night will be held on Saturday 12th March 2016 at 7.30pm.

Book the date!  It’s a little way off, but book those babysitters, get a team together – or just turn up on the night to join an existing team and make some new friends! More information and tickets will be available after Christmas.

Christmas Fair: Saturday 12th December!

The date is set for Saturday 12th December!
There are a number of ways to get involved:

Friday 11th December – help us get set up for the fair. There’s lots to do straight after school finishes, we welcome as many volunteers as possible!

Saturday 12th December 10am – 12pm, before the fair starts there’ll be lots of last minute jobs – come along and help us get the fair ready.

Saturday 12th December 12pm – 2.30pm, volunteer to help on a stall. We really need lots of volunteers for this, so even if you can only spare an hour it all helps…and it can be lots of fun!

Saturday 12th December from 2.30pm, help us clear up after the fair. The school needs to be ready for normal service on Monday morning, and with the children’s performances beginning that week there’ll be lots to do!

And of course…come to the fair! Bring your children, friends, family, neighbours  and have some festive fun!

If you’d  like to be involved then please contact us through The Campers Facebook page, via email camppa.herts@gmail.com or catch us in the playground.

Thanks,

Meg Bellingham (Mum to Ben Yr 4, Katie Yr 2 and Lila Reception) and Andi Yoxall (Mum to Thomas Yr 3 and William Reception).

Summer Fair Planning Meetings

Summer Fair Planning Meetings will take place on Wednesday 20th May at 8.00pm in the Speckled Hen Pub on Hatfield Road, and on Friday 22nd May in the School Dining Room after morning drop off.

Please come along to either of these if you would like to help with the Summer Fair. Everybody welcome!

Summer Fair tomorrow!

Don’t forget tomorrow  – Saturday 14th June – is the Camp School Summer Fair!

12pm until 2:30pm – See you there!

 

The Summer Fair is nearly upon us!

We are holding a planning meeting after drop-off in the dining room on Friday 9th May and will also be arranging an evening meeting for the following week. Please do come along if you can make it, as we are really interested in seeing as many new faces (and getting as many new ideas!) as possible.

 

There are many ways to help:

• Donating bric a brac
• offering your time
• getting your employer to offer fundraising-matching for a stall at the fair
• donating/procuring raffle prizes
• saving wine bottles for the wine stall
• rustling up helpers from parents/carers in your year…well, it’s a big list!

Please make yourself known if you are willing to help, we need lots of you! Please do share this information if you know parents/carers who are not members of this page.

Thanks all x

Quiz Night – Saturday 10th May!

We are holding our next quiz evening on Saturday 10th May at 7:30pm

Our quiz evenings are very popular, well supported, and good fun.

The quiz will cover a range of subjects, so start revising; teams will be for a maximum of up to 8 people. Don’t worry if you do not have a full team, just come along and enjoy the fun. (Please note no persons under the age of 16)

A light supper will be provided with a vegetarian option, but you will need to provide your own drink and glasses. A raffle will be held during the interval.

If you would like tickets at £6.00 each please send in the slip from the letter or see Linda or Helen in the office no later than Tuesday 6th May.

 

Mother’s Day Afternoon – 1st April, 2pm

We’re looking forward to seeing you all at our Mothers Day Event on Tuesday 1st April from 2pm onwards in the dining room. There will be Head and Shoulder massages, Henna, and stalls selling Health and Beauty products, Herb Planters, Jewellery, Handmade Cards and Gifts. We will also be holding a raffle. Please bring some cakes to share over a cup of tea!

If you would like to offer any help on the day with teas and coffees or setting up and tidying away, please let me know.

Spring Newsletter and the Great Camp Book Swap

Hello!
We would like to say hello and ‘please help us’ to all our parents and carers! Having just assumed our new roles in the PA we are hoping to follow the success of the great teams before us, and get to know more of you as we plan and run events throughout the year. We hope you can bear with us while we settle in!

Following on from World Book Day throughout the month of March 2014 we’d love you to join us in the Great Camp Book Swap. We’d like to invite you to arrange a get together with friends and family, or your book club (if you have one) anytime during March with each person attending bringing a £2.50 donation to join in, and five books each to swap. Pile all your books on the table and each choose five ‘new’ ones. Have a great evening, you each get five new reads for only 50p each, and the PA gets to make some money too! How about getting the kids to join in by bringing 5 books and 50p to a book-related play date? It’s also great way to get Aunts and Uncles, Nans and Grandads, and other friends who are not so local to join in the fun with their own events to raise some valuable funds. The class who raises the most money will win a prize for the class, with winners to be announced in April. Good luck!

Please download a copy of the newsletter and complete the attached sheet and return to the school office with your donations by 31st March 2014.

Please put the following dates in your diary, for events we have planned so far for this term (also available on our Dates for the Diary page):

28 March – Wear Your Own Clothes Day
1 April – Mothers Day Event (Women Only Event) – 2pm onward in the school canteen
25 April – Cinema Night
10 May – Quiz Night
23 May – Wear You Own Clothes Day
14 June – Summer Fair
26 June – Wear Your Own Clothes Day
17 July – Year End Parties

Please do make yourselves known if you are able to volunteer your services for any help of any kind for anything! Initially we would really appreciate hearing from anyone who knows anyone who does nails, hair, beauty products, jewellery, henna tattoos etc that would like to have a stall at the Mother’s Day Event. All other ideas and suggestions are always welcome. Also anyone who would bake cakes, serve tea and coffee, man stalls, or help set up and tidy up after would be very warmly welcomed!
Full details will be sent out in due course.

Best wishes, Richard and Denise (Thomas D’s Mum and Dad – Year 2)
