  • AGM 2011 : The  annual AGM took place on the 20th October, the minutes of this meeting will be distributed soon. 

 

  • Class Reps meetings - The annual CESPA Class Reps Meeting has taken place on Tuesday 29 November 2011. CESPA and Class reps will get to know each other and will discuss communication, transformation of the school, fund-raising and events, and any issues class reps may have. 

 

  • Fundraising Events - Following last year’s parents’ feedback and wishes, the CESPA Fundraising Committee has decided to organize the following  events: Flea Market/Christmas Market and the Summer fete and the Primary BBQ in the summer after the fun day.

 

    1. All these events require a lot of planning, preparation and work, and CESPA reps alone can’t possibly organize and run them: they need your help or some events might not take place.
    2. To volunteer to help please contact Rui ruimarcal.cespa@gmail.com and Silke Ewald-Geppert silkeewaldgeppert@swanlands.com  for the Flea Market (see below);  or Antonella AandA@ndirect.co.uk for all other events.
    3. The Flea Market, the first CESPA Fundraiser of the year coordinated by Rui Marcal, will take place on Saturday 3rd December,  Please volunteer to help!  More detailed information about the event will be distributed separately.

  • CESPA Garments: CESPA garments and Order s had to be in for the 28th October, for further information on future orders please refer to the CESPA website or contact Helen helencavendish@googlemail.com

 

 

  • Important traffic matters:

 

    1. Cyclists along A415: please use the entrance/exit by the chapel on the A415; cycling in Thame Lane is very dangerous and slows down the flow of traffic.
    2. Car Park at back of school: please use the zebra crossing from the car park to the pedestrian gate, not the car entrance of the car park: drivers turning into the car park can only see pedestrians at the last minute.
    3. Please help the traffic flow in and out of Thame Lane: when you drive to the school and you come from Abingdon/Culham, please stop before you turn left into Thame Lane to let a car out of Thame Lane and a car into Thame Lane, coming from the opposite direction. Then turn left, keeping an eye out for cyclists behind you who want to cross Thame Lane.
    4. Do not leave your car unattended in the bus bay. The bus bay is for pick-up and drop off of pupils only. When you pick up your children from the bus bay, at the end of a school day or after a school trip, please make sure you do not park your car in such a way that the buses or cars cannot get through. 

    5. When emerging from Thame Lane and turning right towards Abingdon keep well to the right of the lane to allow cars behind you to filter left
