Waldegrave School Autumn Magazine 2023

The Annual Y7 Bingo Night that took place at the end of September was once again a fabulous event, and a great fundraiser! It was lovely to see so many families join in the fun. Some Year 7s arrived with their parents and friends, others brought their grandparents along and there were a few older siblings too! The Bingo kept everyone entertained, the pizzas were superb and drinks and sweets were sold all night long.

Our next fundraiser is the Christmas Tree Sale on Saturday 2nd December from 10.00am to 12:30pm. There are several options for tree sizes and you can also purchase a stand. These will appear on Parentpay on Friday 20 October, and the pre-sale will close at 9 am on Friday 1 December. You can then pick up your tree from the school on 2 December. You can also pick up some uniform at the pre-loved Uniform sale on the same morning. Please let us know if you would like to help at any other event or if you have any ideas or contributions for a future fundraiser by emailing pta@waldegravesch.org.

We raised over £1500 thanks to the hard work of our parent volunteers manning the bar, Patrick, Jason, Mark and Lara. A huge thank you to Sarah and her daughter calling the numbers in their fun Bingo jackets. We've lost count of how many years of Bingo-calling Sarah has done, and the good news is she's keeping going! Thank you Victoria and Matt for doing an amazing job with the pizza order from Piazza Firenze. Thank you to Miss Lane, Deputy Headteacher and Mr Bannister, Assistant Headteacher for greeting everyone at the door and making sure that we had a very enjoyable evening. The best part was that so many people made new friends at the event!
