What a Fantastic Fruity Tuck Shop!

This week as part of 'Make a Difference week' the School Council have been busy selling lots of healthy snacks and drinks.... with a Firework theme! We were very lucky to have lots of lovely fruits donated by Newton Abbot Tesco and Kingsteignton COOP.
 
 
 
 
 
 
They gave out colourful stickers to all of the children who visited the Tuck Shop.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
On the 2nd day at the Tuck Shop the School Council set up a Lucky Apple Dip. This was very popular with lots of children at Rydon. Those children that found an apple with a star received a lucky dip prize.
 
As the Lucky Dip Fruit game was so popular the School Council are going to hold one more tuck shop on Tuesday 15th November at morning playtime so come along and see if you are a healthy winner!
 
WATCH THIS SPACE ....... to find out how much we raised!

Rydon Shoe Boxes

They have been keeping a tally of how many boxes have been donated and are coordinating making up boxes from any donations received.
 
The collection point is in the Main Reception area until Friday 11th November so even if you only have a few suitable items at home, please bring them in and we can make up a shoe box.
