Additional Date for Father Christmas

Father Christmas Visits Parsloes Primary School
Dear Parents and Carers,
With the high demand for tickets ( all 60 were sold within ten minutes) we have been in touch with Father Christmas and he does not want to disappoint anyone so he has kindly agreed to come on Monday 7th December again. He will only be able to see children who attend this school, so unfortunately parents will not be able to accompany their child, as this will be during lesson times.
If you would still like a ticket for this please complete the slip below and return with £1.50 in a named sealed envelope to Miss Baker.
Yours sincerely
Miss Baker
My child would like to see Father Christmas, in school time, on Monday 7th December.

One of the stalls will be a clear cup stall, where every child will be given a clear plastic cup to fill up with sweets, pencils, hair clips, small toys etc, so that other children will be able to win them.
Also a cake stall, if you could donate a box of cakes or even some homemade ones, would be appreciated.
