If you find you have items that you no longer need, we are looking for any donations of card games, Hot Wheel cars, superhero figures, construction such as Lego etc., games that challenge, anything suitable for children to use on the playground at lunchtime.

If you have anything that you would like to donate – please send it into school.

Thank you for your continued support.

Santa’s Grotto at the Christmas Fayre

SANTA’S GROTTO AT THE CHRISTMAS FAYRE
FRIDAY 5TH DECEMBER 5-7PM

We hope you will be joining us for our Christmas Fayre this year. If your child/ren would like to visit Santa, tickets will need to be pre-booked. Please see the information below which explains how to book and what to expect.
Tickets are £5 per child and can be booked by going to…

https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/church-of-the-ascension-primary-school-hsa

There you will be able to select which time slot you would like starting from 5pm, every 10 minutes until 6.50pm.
Each time slot has 15 tickets available. Only children require tickets. The time you select is the time you should be at the Grotto entrance by the Key Stage 1 library.

In groups of up to 15 children, they will be taken in to meet our cheery elves and make reindeer food before going to meet Santa and Mrs Claus. Mrs Claus will then tell them a festive story and they will be given their small gifts.

Please note if you choose the 5pm slot then we advise that you arrive slightly earlier than the fayre start time and let them know on the entrance you are here so we can start everything on time.

We are so excited to bring back our grotto and hope the children will enjoy it too!

Change to Morning Routine – Feedback

Following the adjustments to the start of the school day, we would like to collect parental feedback as to how you think the new system is working.

As you will be aware, children no longer line up with their class on the playground. Instead, they are able to enter the building between 8:45 and 8:50 through their assigned doors. A member of staff is available on each gate and each door to record any messages that need to be passed on.

If you are able, please follow the link or use the QR code to complete the form and provide us with your valuable feedback.

Many thanks.
