Volunteer readers
Do you have an hour to spare each week? Could you spend an hour listening to children read? If you are willing and able to donate an hour of your time each week, you could make a huge difference to children in our school. Please let Mrs Browne know – rbrowne@olddalbyschool.org.uk, if you can help.

Friday Cake Sale – Please could you help?
The PTA run the cake sale every Friday but due to other commitments it is becoming more difficult to run the stall every week. Would you be able to help sell cakes from 3.15pm to 3.30pm once in a while? This would not tie you to the PTA in anyway - we just need help to sell the cakes (although you'd be very welcome on the PTA too)! It's a great treat for the kids that we want to keep going. Please email PTA@olddabyschool.org.uk if you can help?
Summer Fair, Sunday, 21st May, 11am – 3pm – Can you help?
This is the big PTA event of the year and we are already planning for this year's extravaganza! We can only run this event with the help of parents and teachers. Would you be able to help on the day to run a stall, set up or clear away? If you can help all day - great, but if that's not possible, we would also appreciate if you can help for an hour or too? If you can help in any way, please email PTA@olddalbyschool.org.uk and we'll be in touch soon!
