School Notices ctd. THE BRIXTON WINDMILL FESTIVAL AND PARADE SATURDAY 22ND JUNE This year Sudbourne has been invited to perform as part of the ‘Cakes Puddings and Pies’ Brixton Windmill Parade 2013. This is one of the highlights in the Brixton calendar and since we have been working so closely with the Brixton Windmill, it is something very relevant to the ‘Use Your Loaf’ unit of work the children will be revisiting next term. It is also a chance to view the amazing murals our pupils helped design and create as part of their workshops earlier in the year. We would like as many families to come and support us all for this exciting event. This year the parade will be launching a brand new product -The Windmill Loaf, made by our wonderful link baker, Richard, from the Old Post Office Bakery. We have been given a flat bed truck which we hope to secure our Steel Pans to so that the children can play them safely as we travel up the hill. Accompanying them will be a collection of Sudbourne Parade Dancers, who will be dressed in beautiful cake designs, thanks to our artistic Librarian, Dodo. As it is a Saturday we will be heavily reliant on parental support and so would love to see if you could lend a hand with any of the following: • A crew of strong parents to move the steel pans on and off the truck at the beginning and end of the event – the more we have the easier it will be. • Donations of bunting, balloons, ribbon etc. to decorate the truck with. If you think you can support us with any of the above please could you contact Louise Gee who will be organising the event, on: lgee@sudbourne.com It promises to be an amazing day out for the whole family – with lots of exciting stalls, food and music, so do put it in the diary. Join us for the parade and start praying for lots of sunshine! Community Notices FAMILY FUN IN LONDON: Please see the attached flyer.
