GO KARTING!

Don’t forget that on Saturday 18th July 10am – 2pm the Friends have organised a Go-Karting session at Charfield School.

The event is a fun one to say thank you to all who have support us throughout the year. The cost for a go will only be £1! So come along and enjoy the fun. We might even discover a future Jenson or Lewis in our midst!

DYSLEXIA SUPPORT GROUP 

On the 30th June we had an evening at the school for parents/carers to discuss amongst themselves any issues that concerned their children with regards to dyslexia/learning difficulties.  It was extremely helpful to be able to chat to other people 'in the same boat' and we decided that it may be beneficial to meet every couple of months to discuss things further.  If you have a dyslexic child, or think that they may be, then by all means come along and talk with us.  This is for parents/carers and will be held in the Railway Tavern on Wednesday 22nd July at 8pm.
