Grandparents Tea Party
Monday 17th October 2022
We are excited to announce that we will once more be holding our annual grandparent’s tea party on Monday 17th October 2022.
We respectfully ask that only Grandparents attend this event. Please could all Grandparents arrive at school for 2.00pm at the main entrance where you will then be escorted to your Grandchild’s class (if you have more than one, we will try to gather them all together!).
You will spend around 30 minutes in the classroom where we hope you will enjoy some time sharing activities with the children.
At 2.30pm you will be invited to come to come to one of our refreshment areas with your Grandchildren for tea and cake / biscuits. We know it is tempting to sneak extra treats for your Grandchildren, but please do not, as we will only have catered for Grandparents. Children will get a biscuit!
Just before home time, your Grandchildren will return to class, and you will be asked to leave via the main entrance near the office. If you are taking your Grandchildren home, then you will be asked to sign them out at the main office.
Safeguarding: please remember that if you are not the usual person collecting, the teacher will need prior notice that you are authorised to collect – this is best noted by the child’s parent in their home school book.
This year we would like to link this event to the launch of our new GATEWAY project. We are hopeful that some of our grandparents might be able to donate non-perishable food items or toiletries towards this project. These donations will undoubtedly support some of our families in our local community as everyone is feeling the pressure due to the cost of living.
