So far this year

DOUGHNUT SALE

Thank you so much for supporting the first FOSJ Doughnut Sale. It was fantastic seeing lots of happy children.  We were thrilled at the response and had many comments about the new logo and branding.  The new card machines were a great success and we hope you agree are a useful addition.
We are thrilled to announce the total profit across the two days was £220.06!

RAINBOW RAFFLE

Thank you so much for your wonderful coloured donations from Rainbow Day. We took your donations and made 14 wonderful Rainbow Hampers. Each Hamper is different with items including alcohol, sweets, cooking ingredients, beauty products, chocolate, nibbles and more! Raffle tickets (5 strips) have been sent out in book bags this week. Each strip is £1 and we ask if you could write your child’s name on every ticket in the strip. Please place the correct money into the envelope and send back into school. If you would not like to purchase raffle tickets, please still return the envelopes and contents in book bags as it will be reused for future events!

The Rainbow Raffle draw will be in assembly on Friday 7th October.

We are pleased to say that the 14th Hamper will be donated to Otley Action for Older People to look out for those in need in our local community. Thank you SO much for your support and donations.
