One of the tasks at the AGM is to set the spending plan for 2007/2008. This is done in consultation with Ms Kruger and the school staff, but your input is welcome. The suggestions for the next year are as follows:

Digital Cameras
Mini-DVD/video cams (suitable for use by the children)
News sheds for Yr1/Yr2 playground equipment
Additional Theatre/Music groups visits (e.g. Rainbow Theatre)
Incubator & heatlamp for Reception (chicken eggs)

If you have any feedback or alternative suggestions please fill out the slip below and return at the latest by Friday 12th October to the FODIS box outside the school office.

We shall be sending information out for the Halloween Discos shortly so keep an eye out for letters in Book Bags!

Best wishes
