Crestwood Park Primary School

Appeal for Food Bank Friday...Please look out for a flyer next week which will be providing details about  Foodbank Friday. To confirm our Foodbank day will be on Friday 12th July 2019.  Our donations will be collected by our Local Foodbank to be distributed to those in need.

The Saleem Foundation (in partnership with Lesley Care Packages) are working on an initiative known as "UNITED HANDS"; we wish to support this worthy cause for the Homeless by receiving donations of socks, underwear (in clean condition), toothbrush, toothpaste, deodrant and facial wipes (new and unused).  In addition, donations of bottles of water, breakfast bars, biscuits, crisps and chocolate bars would be fantastic. We would greatly appreciate any donations but would request that the any best before dates are after the end of November, as this is three month campaign for National Homeless Awareness Day on the 10th October. Thank-you.

WOW! What a truly fabulous time we all had at our annual "Great Get Together Picnic"...the sun was shining, children having fun, families enjoying quality time together and the Crestwood Park staff loved every minute - what more could we have asked for?  Thanks to your generousity we had great success on the tombola and we have continued selling raffle tickets this week - we will annouce the amounts raised shortly.  A massive thank-you to all those attended.

WOW and WOW again...what another fabulous time had by all! Our annual summer fun week, was filled with lots of fun and laugher...and sunshine (apart from 1 day).  Children participated in a range of activities and crafts and the photo-booth proved very popular (photo's will be sent out shortly via email to those who paid and provided their email details). A big thank-you to all those who supported on the day and our lovely ladies in the kitchen provided the children with a scrumptious meal.

Just a quick reminder that our Maths "place value" showcase is being held on Monday 1st July from 2:45pm until the end of the day.  All classes are participating and families are welcome to come and visit and see what is going on across the school. We look forward to seeing you.
