What's on in December
Here's a reminder what is on over the next few weeks for parents and families!
Wednesday 10th December
Children's Christmas Shopping Bazaar
Shopping lists were sent home on Monday for the Christmas shopping event. You can choose up to 6 family members-please write ages next to aunt/uncle/brother/sister to help our shopping helpers. All will be gift wrapped and labelled ready to go under your tree.
Your child will need: A named carrier bag and the correct amount of money secured in an envelope/purse. It is £4 per gift.

Christmas Lunch and Party afternoon
Children can wear party clothes and sensible shoes to school. Playtimes will be happening as normal, so please make sure their clothes are warm enough for this.
Thursday 18th December
1.30pm Grandparents Service at St Peter's Church
(a reminder that this is for Grandparents only-not parents/aunties/uncles, as there is no room. Please do not turn up, as non grandparents will be politely asked to leave-we have hardly ever had to do this as the majority of our families understand that there is not any room in the church for them.)
Friday 19th December
Christmas Jumper Charity Day
Our suggested donation is £1. This year's charity is the amazing Naomi House, which supports many Bishops Waltham families.
Just a reminder...
We do not charge for our performances (like some schools), but we do have a collection at the end of each performance. This enables us to replenish things for the plays, such as face paint and costumes. We allow parents to record the performance for their own personal use only. Nothing is to be posted on social media, as many children's parents do not want their children on social media/not allowed to be on social media. Parents at Bishops Waltham have been brilliant regarding this, and understand the need to protect children in our school, so please continue with this tradition.
