Children in Need - Can Knockdown and Can Pong

Plans are in progress for Children in Need next week. Two YR4 pupils asked Mr Woodford to display a poster for their event:

Mr Woodford was also impressed with the covering letter, detailing a highly planned activity:

As requested by our two fundraisers, we will supply a table on Thursday and Friday, and the poster will be emailed to all parents later this morning. We hope they will be well supported by their schoolfriends. We'll let you know how they got on!

Nepal Earthquake non-uniform fundraising

We raised £318.94 for the Red Cross last Thursday. This report was written by Year 4 reporter Eloise and her friend Ella:

Non-uniform Day
On Thursday 4th June 2015 Upminster Juniors all bought in a pound and dressed down in aid of the Nepal earthquake. 

Over hundreds of people were made homeless with entire villages flattened, across many districts of the country. Most charities have been given tents and clean water to pilots, so they can fly them over to Nepal and give the now homeless people what they need. 

The earthquake is called the Gorkha earthquake.

Did you know if we raise £55.00 it will enable 5 families to have fresh, clean water to last them.
