Scarecrow Help
The Monkton Park Royal Scarecrow Trail is next weekend! We are still looking for more volunteers to help. Can you spare a couple of hours to help sell trail sheets or help with the BBQ? If so, please go to the website below and sign up to be part of this special event:
We will be selling refreshments at the event and we would like your donations of cakes to sell over the weekend. Please give generously (but easy on the buttercream as it doesn't like the sun). Please bring your creations to the school office on Friday, or deliver to us at the school over the weekend.
Thank you for your support!
