Fill Your Bags

Jumble sale: Saturday 28^th February 2-4pm

Hopefully you have received your designer yellow donation bags decorated with the wonderful images provided by Mr McBean and Year 3. Please have a look and see if there is anything that you would like to donate (in a saleable condition) and return these in the bags to the school office by Wednesday 25th January.

Invite your friends, your neighbours, your neighbours neighbours friends.....

Hopefully you get the idea, invite everyone you know. We're doing our bit and posters will be appearing around town as well as Wessex FM promoting the event but you can help too so please invite everyone that you know.

Come to school on a Saturday.

OK, I'll admit it's not something I would normally advocate but pop down for half an hour, bring some pennies and pick up a bargain or 2

We hope to see you on Saturday 28th @ 2pm

We're all looking forward to a bit of festive cheer - Bah Humbug!

We're all busy preparing for the frantic end of term period, there are the school play to look forward to, the parties to prepare and that's before we think about the visit of Santa himself

For those of you lucky enough to have tickets to the opening day at the PoW theatre hall look out for the POWSA stall where you can still pick up a last minute treat, be it a Plum pudding, calendar or one of the delightful gifts made by year 4. For the rest of us with tickets to the later performances don't worry, if there's anything left we'll make sure it's on sale on Wednesday and Thursday as well.

Merry Christmas!

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.

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.
