A few notes from Mr Applegate

• Thank you so much for your support this week, and the verbal and written thanks that we’ve received. Let’s hope it’s a week not to be repeated!…
• Our FOSM Summer Fun Day has been postponed until Saturday 4th July from 12pm to 3.30pm.  If you can offer some of your time to help out on a stall for a few hours please sign up here or email secretary.fosm@stmarksce.org.uk for further details.
• Friday 3rd July – Non-uniform – bring in an item for the tombola which can be unwanted gifts, new small toys or bottles of alcohol. We can’t take perishable items or chocolate!
• The deadline for ordering Class Photos is 30th June. See details below.
• Around 80 of our pupils sang, performed or danced at the Anvil on Tuesday and Wednesday as part of the Basingstoke Primary Schools Music Festival. They were incredible! A special well done to Olivia and Ben for their solos. And a special night for Miss Stonehouse and Mrs Chapman, who have been hugely involved in the BPSM over the years. You will be missed!
• Does your child know the water safety code? Would you know what to do in a water emergency? Find helpful resources about water safety here.
• Have you signed up for the Arbor App yet? This will be our new payment system from September. More details and how to login are here.
• Year 6 – Performance – Don’t forget to order your tickets here.

Have a great weekend, Charles
