“Friday Fortnightly”
Friday November 26th

Mickleton Primary
School

Thank you very much for your wonderful spotty costumes and for raising so much money for Children in Need. When we added
together the donations, the profit from the Foundation Stage cake stall and all of the Pudsey pennies we raised £138. Well done everyone, I am sure that your money will be put to good use helping other children.

Your Friday Fortnightly contains—
Christmas Fete
Children in need
Snowline
Christmas activities

INCLEMENT WEATHER
Just a reminder that, should the weather become more wintry and a closure be necessary, then this will be posted on the Gloucestershire County Council website and on local radio. Our ‘snowline’ will also be put into action. Please remember to let us know if you change your telephone number. Please also check your text messages as we will be using this system if the telephone lines fail.

We would like to say goodbye to Mrs Lightfoot who will be leaving Mickleton on Friday 3rd December. We welcome Mrs Hearle who will be joining us just before Christmas.

Well done to everyone for raising £35.75 for the poppy appeal. The British Legion is very grateful and will use the money to support service families.
