The school is also going to raise money through daily cake shops.
Conkers are selling cakes on Thursday so please send in any shop bought or
homemade cakes and biscuits. The children will have the opportunity to buy
cake from the shop every day so please send a small amount of money in a purse, if you wish your child to buy one.
