Free gift event at Richardson’s Salon – Friday 16th December
Further to my recent post about the free gift event at the Richardson’s Salon in Pontesbury, please see their poster:
Football Boots & Shin Pads
If your child ever grows out of their football boots and/or shin pads, please consider donating them to school if they are still in good condition. Children grow out of these types of things so quickly and we always have children we can pass them on to.
Thank you!
