Dear Parent / Carers,
Year 6 Girls Win Football Tournament
On Friday we took 10 girls to the football tournament at St Thomas More School. The girls played about 8 matches, competing with around 20 schools where we made it into the quarter finals. Despite the rain and it being a very cold day, our Campsbourne Year 6 girls did it and we won bringing back a lovely gold trophy to school! The Year 6 girls had so much fun and were so proud of themselves at the end of the day. Big win for Campsbourne!
Y6 Boys Football Tournament
Our Year 6 boys took part in the Year 6 football tournament at New River Sports Centre. The boys played up to 9 football matches and played those games so well, winning most and drawing a couple games which then qualified them for the quarter finals. We won our quarter final game and then went onto the semi-finals. The boys did so well and we were able to finish 4th place in the competition. Well done Campsbourne!
Volunteer Gardeners Needed!
We are looking for any parent volunteers with carpentry skills who would be interested in helping us build a den in the Wiltshire garden or if carpentry is not your thing any parent volunteers with gardening skills who would like to help us tidy up the garden and get our new containers planted? If you are interested please email Izabela Martyka-Lau izabela.martyka-lau@campsbourne.haringey.sch.uk or Sharon Hodson sharon.hodson@campsbourne.haringey.sch.uk
Half Term Holiday Club Cancelled
I’m afraid that we have had to cancel the half term holiday club due to works which will be carried out on site by UK Power Network which will mean we have no power for most of the week. I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Winter Coat Swap
TRY NOT TO BUY A NEW COAT THIS YEAR. USE CAMPSBOURNE’S ECO SWAP AND SHARE COAT DRIVE INSTEAD.
Winter is nearly here and it’s time for coats and jackets. If last year’s jacket is too small, bring it in and swap it for one that fits. Please bring any unwanted CLEAN coats in good condition to the main gate and put them in the marked box.
Latest from the HSA
Cauliflower Cards
By now you should have received the Cauliflower Cards leaflet, in your child’s school bag, allowing you to have mugs, cards, wrapping paper etc made with your child’s artwork. It’s a very simple process: have your child draw on the leaflet, choose which products you’d like and you can pay online (instructions on the leaflet). Please return to school by the 25th of OCTOBER. If you have any questions, contact Felicity Slater via Classlist.
Money for Jam!
If you haven’t yet, please consider signing up for Easyfundraising, which gives the school a donation every time you shop online, at NO extra cost to you! They’re offering a bonus £2 for everyone who signs up until 27th October, plus if we get 10+ new supporters, we’ll be entered into a prize draw to win a further £150! easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/cshsa
We also have the Asda cash pot scheme running for another 57 days and we will get £1 for the school just for downloading the app, plus any spending you make in Asda we’ll get 0.5% of that shop, at NO extra cost to you!

Coffee Truck Morning
On Friday the 18th of October, local coffee truck Kinda Grind are back! They will be parked up in the middle playground at drop off until 10 am, serving a delicious selection of dairy-free coffees, teas and hot chocolate, available for all teachers, parents and carers to buy.
