Junk needed!
On Wednesday 17th June Year 2 have a junk model sharing workshop which is run by an
outside agency. We would love for you to come and join us as ideally each child would
benefit from having an adult to support them. There will be a brief introduction for the
children between 9am and 9.30am of Anthony’s background and what he does then 2H is
in the morning 9.30am – 11.30am and 2F is in the afternoon 1.20pm – 3.20pm. Please
could you start saving your junk for then but please don’t bring it in until Monday 15 th
June as we have limited space to store it. Thank you.
The junk we need is:
 Cardboard boxes of differing size but the bigger the better (washing tablet
boxes and cereal boxes are perfect)
 Old Newspapers (suitable content)
 Brown Cardboard (wrapping paper style or thicker)
 Cardboard Tubes (kitchen towel rolls).
 Large plastic bottles
