• Christmas Fair Survey

  Wed 11 Dec 2019

  Thank you to everyone who attended the Christmas Fair on Saturday. We took more than £10,000 on the day from stalls, over £2k on the Raffle and £700 on the silent auction. We also introduced some new games, such as 'Santa down the Chimney' and 'Knock the Elf of the Shelf' (Sports Hall), Snowman Toss (outside) and a Photo Studio. Thankfully it wasn't raining so we also used the outside space to help free up congestion inside.

  It's important that we glean any feedback from parents so that the PTFA can make the event better in future years, so please complete our short survey. https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/FieldingXmasFair 

• Recommended Reading List Fund at £3,521

  Wed 11 Dec 2019

  Last week we introduced a weekly tracker for the PTFA's Recommended Reading List fund.  This follows the announcement recently that 80% of Fielding's Library Books were classified as 'Condemned'. 

  We have a target to raise an extra £5,000 on top of the £40,000 the school has already paid to buy new books for our children.  So, over the last seven days we have raised £150 - just £1,479 short of our target.

   If you are able to donate, either scan the QR code with your phone on the poster at each school entrance, donate via https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/8gmxwZI8ZG or purchase one of the books yourself and ask your child(ren) to bring it into the school office and highlight the value of giving.

• Annual cooking fee - payment request

  Wed 11 Dec 2019 J Peterson

  We are very proud to provide a fantastic opportunity for our pupils to attend class cooking sessions during school hours and these commenced in September. 

  An annual voluntary contribution of £12.00 to cover the cost of ingredients for all three terms was requested. Whilst this contribution is voluntary and can be removed from your cashbook upon request, we cannot continue to provide opportunities for our pupils without your continued support.

  To pay, please log into your Laser school cashbook. Thanks to those parents who have already paid this.

  Should you require any further information, please contact Jane at finance@fielding.ealing.sch.uk
