Dear Parents and Friends of Castle Hill Primary School,
What an odd year it has been for us all! Obviously, our fundraising efforts have had to cease meaning many of our regular events cannot go ahead. Having put our heads together to find alternative fundraising opportunities, the idea of a Scarecrow Trail was born! There are over 30 houses on the Rooksdown estate that are taking part in creating a Scarecrow. During the first weekend in October, you will be able to purchase a map so that you can enjoy a lovely autumnal walk with family and friends, searching for and finding the scarecrows, voting for your favourite.
Start: Rooksdown Community Centre (Maps will be available to purchase for £1.00). Once you have
completed the trail, you will be able to vote for your favourite. The creator of the scarecrow with the most votes will receive £50.00.
Refreshments: At the community centre, a refreshment stall will be open from 10:00 – 15:00 on both Saturday 10th & Sunday 11th October. Our lovely local Councillor, Simon Bound, will be helping out. Dog bowls of water for your 4-legged friends will also be available.
We need your help!!
In order to provide cakes for the refreshment stall, we would be extremely gratefully if you could donate any form of boxed/sealed cakes that we can then sell on our stall. On Friday 2nd October, there will be a table to the side of the pedestrian gate and the field during the morning drop-off times. Please place any donations on this table for our team to collect. All donations will be much appreciated. We are not asking for cake donations from Year R.
We would love to see as many of you there as possible, so please search on Facebook for Rooksdown Scarecrow trail fundraising friends 2020 for further details.
All proceeds of the event will go towards school funds for your children.
We look forward to you joining the fun with family and friends!
Many thanks for your continued support.
