Friends of St Luke’s new year letter

Happy New year to you all!
We would like firstly to say a BIG THANK YOU! to all the children and parents who braved the snowy weather to help bag pack at the co-op. It was a great success and we raised over £500 so it was well worth the effort.
The children who attended the PTA disco had a fantastic night. The change of venue worked very well and the evening went smoothly. A huge thanks goes to all the teachers and parents who helped out.
We are still collecting old mobile phones, please hand them into the office if you have any. Thank you!
The giving machine has worked overtime this Christmas and you have raised over £60 just by shopping on line. Please join if you haven’t already.

Next meeting Monday 31st January 6pm everyone welcome! We would love new members with fresh ideas.
An Exciting new *** Challenge ***
We are hoping that this year will be our best ever, we want to try and raise funds for new and exciting projects
- A brighter, friendly outdoor play area for all our children.
- Laptops and Netbooks so children always have them at hand in each classroom.
- Putting the finishing touches to our new library.
We know times are difficult and everyone is feeling the pinch, so most of our ideas don't require ANY MONEY. They include:
The full launch of all this will be mid March so look out for the posters around school.
Over Easter there will be a "Name the Bunny", tickets will also be on sale for the Easter raffle.
We are hoping to arrange a family "Race Night" some time in April. check here for updates.
