Please complete this form, selecting the desired club options and
return to the school office. Please tick one box for the sessions
required, either activity club or 'choices' self directed activities
club. pricing is really simple, being £5 for each session selected. Return booking form to the school office by the 25th May.
Once received, the school will send out a confirmation of place in
the requested club and an invoice requesting payment via the
parent pay website. Invoices to be paid by 22nd June
This payment will secure the place requested. Parents who have completed the early indication annual book

requested sessions. You will need to select the clubs your child
would like to join with. You will then receive a confirmation and
invoice at the same time as all others. Invoices to be paid by 22nd June
This payment will secure the place requested. Our working group is really excited after all the behind scenes
work has come to this point and we are looking forward to a
brilliant experience for the children of Milverton! We are, of course, really open to discussion regarding this provision
and happy to listen to feedback for how we can make things
even better for the families of Milverton.

Friday 27th April
Scrambled legs! On 12th May, three of our Milverton parents, Clare, Lorna and Kay will be walking 26 miles across London
throughout the night dressed in their bras, to raise money for breast cancer.
The facts are quite staggering;
- 1 in 8 women in the UK will develop breast cancer at some point in their life
- 140 women are diagnosed every day
- 950 women a month lose their life to breast cancer
- 1% of breast cancers are in men
But sadly, closer to home we all know those who’ve been or are currently being effected by cancer both
breast & beyond.
They would be extremely grateful for your support - however large or small, financial or emotional - it all
counts!

Send a message of friendship
Come to the FOMPS Cosy Book Cafe!
Fiona Henshaw, Erin, Eleanor and Eila’s mum will be making a
trip out to Uganda in June to volunteer at a local school. She is
currently fundraising to help the children of the school.
This fundraising is being supported by friends of the school EHB
Residential and Onside Coaching, both making kind donations
to the cause.
We are asking that children make a small card with a picture
and a message of friendship to send to a Ugandan child at the
school.
Please can each child send in a ‘suggested donation of £1’ to
go along with the card that will help to buy supplies for the
school. This money will go a long way to buying simple items
that we take for granted for our own children.....Fiona is hoping
to create a live link during her trip so the children can engage with each other and see where the donations
will help. We will hope to receive some cards back to share. With your support, this may be able to develop
into a relationship between our two schools. Thank you!
Please bring your card and donation to the school office, where we will collect them for Fiona to take. Please
ensure the cards and donations are with us by the 18th of May to prepare for delivery.
Enjoy a cup of tea and a slice of cake whilst you browse books for sale in the FOMPS Cosy Book Café! This
fundraising event will take place after school in the main hall on Wednesday June 20th.
Please donate your unwanted books to the school reception - all books are welcome!
Books for sale will be priced 50p - £1
All cakes 50p
Tea/coffee/juice also for sale
The funds raised from this event will be used to fund an exciting creative writing project, launching in
September 2018. Poet Dean Parkin will be visiting the school in the autumn term to inspire the children and to
share some of his poems. He will also run workshops with small groups of pupils.
Later in the term, all children in the school will be invited to upload their poems online and have them
published in Milverton’s very own poetry book! These books will be produced through the Scholastic 'We Are
Writers' scheme and will be on sale for you to purchase in time for Christmas.
Celebration assembly
On a Friday during our celebration assembly many children will bring in certificates and trophies celebrating
their sporting, musical, theatrical and other significant achievements won outside of school. We like to
celebrate these achievements with all children and will give them out in assembly when possible.
If children have achieved a gold award in mathletics, the child should let their teacher know . Their teacher will
print the certificate for us to present in assembly. Families may print out their own bronze and silver certificates
and these can be presented in class.
Friday May 11th 2018
On Friday 18th May we will have some cards and pencils on the playground if
children would like to complete their messages at that time, you may want to
bring a postcard to complete and please bring a donation to attach.
