Matters Arising

Pioneer Centre trip is Year 6 not Year 5, to be amended in minutes

“Drop in” sessions – 1^st Thursday of each month at school from 2:30pm. Next Coffee 7 Chat Afternoon is Thursday 1^st July

Sally Burgess has researched buying sites & search engines that raise money. There is everyplace.com that would pay CPSA a percentage or a fixed rate per purchase and easyfundraising.org that would donate some pennies per search and we could all set this site as our default search engine site. Both sound like a good way of making some money without too much effort (except for Sally!)

Minutes approved

Katherine and/or Sam Ellis to Host

Sally will discuss both these ideas with Richard Smallwood before we go public

Previous Events

22 May 2010- Bingo

This was a lovely family afternoon of bingo, hot dogs and ice cream. All the children and their families really enjoyed the bingo, some even learned their numbers without even realising! The added bonus was that the afternoon raised £306.00. Great!

27 May 2010- Maypole

Again a very special afternoon watching the children dance. The teas & cakes looked amazing,and judging by the £219 raised tasted amazing too

Many thanks to Harriet and her team

Huge thanks to bunting queens Rachel Smith, Anna Allanson and their helpers
