Hi <<First Name>>,

In the lead up to Christmas we have lots of fundraising activities planned. On top of having fun, the money raised for each activity will allow the PTA to fully fund some really lovely Xmas events for the kids and much needed school projects. Including creating mini-libraries in every classroom with age specific books!

Rudolph's Relay Race sign-up is now open
Wickham Common Primary School is running our second socially-distanced relay race around Coney Hall!  Saturday 12th December, 11.30am-1.30pm starting and finishing at the school.

The race organisers will need your child's information filled out here to allow them to plot the relay route and in case of an emergency on the day.

If your children weren't able to get involved last time this is their chance!  We can only accept the first 50 houses so sign-up quickly.

This time the children will be raising money to create mini libraries in each classroom and more reading books. The sponsorship link is here: https://bit.ly/rudolphracesponsor
