Creeting st Mary CEVAP calls out for votes to get a share of Tesco’s Stronger Starts fund
Creeting st Mary CEVAP is bidding for a cash boost from the Tesco Stronger Starts scheme.
Stronger Starts provides grant awards of up to £1,500 to local community projects, with a particular focus on children and young people.
Three groups in every community have been shortlisted to receive grant awards and Tesco customers can vote for the group they think should take away the top award in their local Tesco store.
Creeting st Mary CEVAP is one of the groups on the shortlist in Stowmarket.
A new bikeshed for the playground, making space for the increasing number of bikes and scooters we have coming into school, ensuring we are encouraging as many pupils as possible to use these modes of transport.
Voting is open in all Tesco stores from early April until the end of June 2024. Customers will cast their vote using a blue token given to them at the check-out each time they shop.
Another fantastic effort from so many of the children with their decorated potatoes for World Book Day!
Winners to be announced soon, but for now have a look through the photos of the amazing creations!
We have had a Christingle service at the church this week for Chestnut and Birch and Ash and Oak had a visit from Reverend Helen to talk about the meaning behind the Christingle.
As part of our fun day Friday we have all made a Christingle to take home!
Those of you who have been with us at Christmas before may remember that we ask the children to think about Christmas being a time for giving as well as receiving. We have requested that everyone tried to contribute something for the Stowmarket Foodbank by donating a small item each day for twelve days in the run up to the end of term. We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of pupils, parents, staff and the wider school community when we have done this in previous years and we would love to be able to offer our support once again this year.
This is some of our donations this year!
On Friday November 17th we joined in with fundraising for Children in Need. Everyone could wear their own clothes, something spotty if they wanted to and bring in some spare change. The school council had drawn out a huge Pudsey shape and we filled it with the coins donated. The total was over £120 and has been donated straight to the charity! Well done everyone.
At the start of every new school year we paint the hand prints of all our pupils and add them to our tree in the reception area of school.
When the children leave Creeting, they are given all of their hand prints they have made over the years as a special reminder of their growth!
Here is a picture of our completed tree this year 2023-2024
The recorder club had a fabulous performance to parents in July, performing a number of pieces they have been practising.
Well done everyone!
Lego club have had a fantastic time recently, have a look at some of their fab creations!
Our Lego club on a Monday, is run by Miss Banthorpe. This week they were challenged to making something that could float. Have a look at the pictures to see what was created.
