As part of this day, children can come into school in non-uniform (ideally, with a Christmas jumper).

Christmas Tree Auction

A big thank you to Burwarton Estate for their donation of the large (~15ft) Christmas tree – which some of you may have seen in the school hall during the recent nativity performance.

 

An extra thank you this year to Anita and Duncan Pearce – who donated the smaller (~8ft) Christmas tree (situated just outside the main entrance).

 

Same as last year, we are looking to auction both trees off to raise some further funds for FOBCS (our PTA).

If anyone would like to make bid for either Christmas tree, please do so via the following link: FOBCS – Christmas Tree Auction ’25 – Fill in form
