On Friday 17th November 2023, the whole school will be helping raise money for Children in Need by participating in a Wear your favourite hat to school day.

Non-uniform is welcome and whilst there is no particular dress code theme for this charity event, if the children wish, they can be ‘spotacular’ by wearing clothing with spots, dots, bright yellow or Children In Need/Pudsey branding.

Children in Need is such a worthwhile cause as they fund local charities and projects who help remove barriers that are facing children and young people, so that they can thrive. Last year, Children in Need supported over 460,000 children and young people by a whole range of disadvantages such as poverty, disability, illness, distress or trauma.

To help support support Children in Need, we ask the children who wear a hat or non-uniform to make a minimum charitable donation of £1. Donations can be made on ParentMail or by scanning the QR code on the posters displayed in our classroom windows.

Make your own hat and wear it on the day to win a prize

For those that would like to conjure up something special and create their own hat extravaganza there’s the chance to win a £10 book voucher kindly donated by the Suddenly… on Sheaf Street bookstore!

There is a prize for the most creative hat maker in EYFS, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.

We would like to thank everyone in advance for their support with this worthwhile charity.
