A big thank you to Mrs. Pollock for having a plant sale outside her house for several weeks. The amazing total

A Great Big Thank you from all at The Curzon CE Primary School to:
The PTFA, for all their hard work organizing events to help the school buy resources, but also helping give our
children opportunities and treats.
The many parents that support us and to those who give of their time to help in school. Mrs. Pegg and Mrs. Hill for
their help with the gardening club from Year 1 and Year 4. Mr. Small for the ‘odd jobs’ he does around school.
The governors who give a lot of their valuable time and skills voluntarily to help run the school in many ways, often
unseen but so necessary.
