Save the Children: Christmas Jumper Day
Click the picture to visit their website!
On Friday 16th December we’re inviting all pupils to take part in Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day.
The whole school will be taking part. You won’t need to splash out on a snazzy new sweater to join the fun-simply decorate an old woolly jumper or just come in something festive e.g. tinsel, a Christmas hat or come dressed up as Father Christmas- it’s up to you.
We’re asking pupils to make a £1 donation, or whatever they can give, to help save children’s lives across the world.
If you would like more information about Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day, please see www.christmasjumperday.org.
Thank you for your support.
Merry Christmas.
