Dear Parent / Carers,
Whiteread visit William Morris Gallery
On Tuesday, Whiteread visited the William Morris Gallery and explored the world of printing and the intricate designs of William Morris. They participated in hands-on activities, learning about different printing techniques and creating their own patterns. The visit included a guided tour of the gallery, where the children found out about William Morris’ life and what he used to create the colour red in his prints – it was quite a gruesome fact! Overall, we had a great day and the children created some lovely art work.

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.
