Sports Day - Tomorrow Friday 18^th   June

Pre-Prep races will start at 1.00 p.m. all children are to come to school wearing their games kit and must have a sun hat with them.  Nursery children will return to their parents as soon as their races have finished.  If  you would like to take photos of your children please do this from the side of the track rather than at the finish line.  At the end of Pre-Prep races children will return to their parents who will then be responsible for them.

Fundraising whilst shopping - it couldn't be easier

Did you know that every purchase you make on line could be earning money for our school?

Hundreds of our favourite retailers have signed up to buy.at/.com, promising to pay a percentage of their profit margin to participating charities. And as one such charity, Cundall Manor School, could be benefitting from this scheme. All you have to do, when shopping for your favourite brands, is place your order on-line via the buy.at/.com website. It doesn't cost you any more.  But it does help us buy more for our school.

You may be surprised just how many big retailers are supporting this initiative. Names like BT, M&S and Ebay and Amazon.

Please take a look at www.buy.at/friendsofcundall.

Cricket Bats for India

Many thanks for the bats that have been donated for the Upper School expedition to Darjeeling in India this summer. Any further old bats that are looking for a new home will be gratefully received.

 Friends Catering Hire

A reminder that the Friends have a full 100 setting dinner service (plus candelabra, table decorations etc) for hire. Please contact Debbie Keegan (07909904994) for further details.
