MacMillan Coffee Morning
Reported by: Mrs Walmsley
We once again held our annual Macmillan coffee morning and cake sale in
the Great Hall and we had some fantastic cake donations which raised over
£250 for the charity.
Parents from the PFA kindly came in to help in selling the cakes and
we then invited all the pupils to come along and purchase them.
It was lovely to see so many parents joining us for coffee and with all
their kind donations the event was yet again a great success.
Overall we raised over £350 to go to Macmillan Cancer
Support.
Well done and thank you to all parents, grandparents and
friends who came along to support the event!

Harvest Festival

Cash for Kids

Reported by: Mr McCoy

Reported by: Mrs Seddon

On Friday 3rd October First School
held their Harvest Assembly in the
Chapel.

An additional part of our
‘Make a Difference day’ has
been a whole school
initiative to support
under privileged children in
Lancashire.


Children were asked to bring in
tins, packets or boxes of food that
could then be used to help families
less fortunate than ourselves. The
children's response was amazing!
The front of the stage was covered
with a whole variety of produce
that we were able to pass onto a
local charity that supports
homeless people and families
in need.
This year we once again worked
with Green Pastures in Southport, a
very worthwhile organisation who
were extremely pleased
to receive our generous
support.
Thank you to all the
children and their families for the
generous offerings for the
Harvest Assembly.

Scarisbrick Hall School has
been working in conjunction
with Rock FM, acting as a
drop off point for gifts, which
will then be collected and
distributed to needy children.

Everyone has responded
superbly and the volume of
gifts we have been given, is a
credit to the pupils and
parents associated with
our school.
Thank you for your support! 


Operation
Christmas Child
Reported by: Miss Sutcliffe
We decided to support this
charity again this year and
wanted to try to break last
year's total of 110 boxes! Most
of the children in First School
took part with some bringing
in more than one box.
The van arrived for collection
on the 14th November when
Year 3 were on hand to help
load them into the van. We
were delighted to find that
there were 120 boxes.
Well done everyone!
