FREE Christmas Trees



That's right, our friends at the RSPB in Arne are having their  annual "Pull a Pine" day and they are giving away Christmas trees for free. They are completely free, all you have to do is turn up, pull a few pines and then, hey presto, a free tree.

Full details can be found here

2015 Calender - On Sale From Friday


Just when you thought Halloween was over and it was safe to come out from under the blanket we proudly present  Mr October 2015 in the POWSA school calendar, it's guaranteed to make ever those of you with a stout heart weep.

Available to buy from Friday and very reasonably priced at £4.50 the calendar also makes a lovely gift for grandparents, Aunties & Uncles, vague acquaintances or even the postman. The initial print run is limited so be sure to order yours. All of the images have been kindly donated by staff, parents and pupils themselves and all profits are invested back into the school

Why not order yours at the quiz evening this Friday, doors open at 6pm

Prince Charles' Visit & Plum Puddings

Now there's a title you don't expect to write everyday.

For those of you who missed the visit of HRH Prince Charles ( I like to think of him as the POW in POWSA now) have a look at the video on the Echo's page linked here, it sums it up perfectly and the children all enjoyed it immensely.

As ever a big thank you to all the staff at the school who made sure the event ran seamlessly and to the children who's enthusiasm for the visit was obvious for all to see.

We also have half a dozen plum puddings and half a dozen Chocolate puddings available for those who have not ordered theirs yet, make sure you snap them up soon as once they're gone they're gone.

incorrect factually.

Hello & THANKYOU


POWSA would like to say a HUMUNGOUS "Thank You".  Your support last year helped us raise a substantial amount of money, which we have been able to invest back into the school.

Our major donation last year was £1500 to support the school library, which is now stocked with some really fantastic books. It's great to see how parent input can really benefit the facilities our children get to enjoy at our fab school :)

We are looking forward to raising even more money to help the school and our community, with your support this year. We will keep you up to date with the fundraising, how the money is used, and most importantly how you can help as the year progresses.

One quick and easy way to help is by shopping!! If you register with Easy Fundraising and buy online goodies from Amazon, John Lewis or M&S (and over 200 other retailers) POWSA receives a donation. All it costs you is 2 minutes of your time to register and the benefit stays right here with the school. http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/powsa

Finally thanks to those of you who gave up your time  to help us over the last 12 months, we really appreciate everyone's efforts and volunteers are always richly rewarded with tea or coffee and even the odd cake so feel free to ask any of the POWSA team if you can spare some time to help us in the future.
