Update

Thank you for baking/bringing in your cakes and treats for the cake sale. We
received plenty of goodies to sell and raised over £100.

Our AGM took place on the 11th March and we covered the events we organised last year as well as how we have spent some of the money raised. The main items of expenditure made by the PTA last year were for:

- Nintendo DSi and Games
- Infant playground markings
- School planners
- Football kits

The PTA still has some money in the bank and will hopefully raise lots more in the coming
year to spend on the children and the school.


We have managed to keep all of the outgoing Committee and have added a few new PTA members too. The PTA members list will be updated to reflect the changes.

Keep supporting us, we can't do this without you!!

PTA new news!

A big thank you to the children that performed at the Talent Show, everyone that came along to support them and to all those that helped to make the evening so enjoyable.

We have a few events coming up in March.

The first one will be a Mother’s Day Cake Sale. This will take place after school on Wednesday 9th March. The PTA will also be selling £5 gift vouchers that can be redeemed at the Ladies Pamper Evening during this event. A reminder will be sent out with the children so don’t forget to bring your cakes to school on the day.

The PTA’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on Thursday 11th March from 9.15am to 10.15am. We will be going over last year’s events and accounts and there will be an opportunity for parents to find out what we do and to join if you want to. This is open to all (parents with young children/babies can bring them along too).

A Ladies Pamper Evening has been organised for Friday 19th March. Keep an eye on the PTA Notice boards around the school for more details.

PTA talent show

The PTA Talent Show



The PTA will be hosting Nightingale’s Talent Show on Friday 22nd January 2010. Any performers should have already received their permission and ticket purchase letters. If you haven't done so already, please return them to the PTA as soon as possible.



Tickets will be available to purchase this coming week in the Infant playground, via the PTA mailbox and at the door.



There are 2 shows and tickets for each are: Adults £3, Children £2 (please state which show you are purchasing tickets for)



Show 1: Years 3 and 4 Starts 7pm (doors open at 6.30pm)

Show 2: Years 5 and 6 Starts 8.15pm (doors open at 8pm)



Drinks and snacks will be on sale and we envisage each show to run for just under an hour.

The Summer Fun Day was a great success – we were incredibly
lucky with the weather and the combination of activities/stalls; the
Talent Show; and displays meant we had a huge turnout and managed to raise lots of money for
the school.

The ever popular Halloween disco took place on October 23rd and as with
previous years, the tickets sold out very quickly. The kids looked
fantastic in their costumes and appeared to be having a great time.
Many thanks to everyone that volunteered their services at these
events and also to all those that turned up and spent their money with
us.
