Our annual Christmas Raffle is just around the corner, and we’re asking for your support to make it a success! If you own or know of a business that can contribute, it’s a great way to support our school and gain some local promotion. In the past prize donations have included gift vouchers, beauty treatments, floral arrangements, hampers ect. To donate, please contact us at friendsofhempland@gmail.com Asda Rewards for Hempland Primary School CASHPOT FOR SCHOOLS
Do you shop at Asda?
Do you have the Rewards app? If not, please sign up? Every time you shop with Asda from now until 30th November, they will donate 0.5% of your total spend to a primary school of your choice. Plus, Asda will add £1 into the school’s cashpot every time someone opts in – pass on the information to family, friends and neighbours too! The FRIENDS of Hempland will be able to access the money via ParentKind, and our aim is to put the amount raised towards new outdoor trail equipment that we would like to purchase once the new school has been built. This doesn’t cost you anything, so please register our school on your Rewards app, then SHOP, SCAN and Asda will donate.
Pre-Christmas Toy Sale & Tombola – Donations Needed!
As we prepare for the festive season, why not have a clear out and make some space? We’re organising a Pre-Christmas Toy Sale and Tombola (date TBC) and would love your support! If you have any unwanted toys, games, or gifts in good condition that could make great Christmas presents for other families, please consider donating them to the school. It’s a perfect way to recycle and help others while raising funds for our school. Dates and further details to be confirmed soon.
