Thank you to local community choir group #RVoices who are kindly organising a collection of unwanted coats for the #Coats4Calais charity.
We managed to put together 4 large bags of coats from our FEGS (PTA) cupboard that have previously been donated by parents or were left as lost property during the last academic school year.
If you would like to know more about this charity or to give a cash or coat donation, please see their website: https://care4calais.org/coats4calais/

Book: The Lie Tree by Frances Hardinge
This dark, exciting novel delves into the world of religion versus science in the late 1800s. Faith is a fabulous character, undervalued and underestimated because of her sex, but determined to overcome every obstacle society puts into her path.
When Faith’s father is found dead under mysterious circumstances, she is determined to untangle the truth from the lies. Searching through his belongings for clues she discovers a strange tree. A tree that feeds off whispered lies and bears fruit that reveals hidden secrets.
But as Faith’s untruths spiral out of control, she discovers that where lies seduce, truths shatter…………………………….
