Happy New Year!!!
A huge thank you to everyone who supported FOMPS last term.
We are pleased to say that our Christmas events (card sales, Christmas Fair and raffles) have raised over £2500. Final figures will be ready for our first meeting of the year on Monday 16th January.
We also wanted to say a huge thank you to those who sponsored our events and raffles with donations. A special thank you to The Tenth Hole Tea Room in Monkton Park for their continued support to FOMPs and the school, their donation of the crackers for the children's Christmas Lunch was greatly appreciated.
Our next meeting will be on Monday 16th January at 3.15pm at school (classroom to be confirmed), will be summarising last term but also looking forward to the coming year. All are welcome and we look forward to seeing you.
