Onesie/Pyjama Day

Please join in the fun and support the fundraising day tomorrow. A donation of £1 would be good but a donation of any size would be appreciated. The RSPCA is the charity chosen by the children to support this year.

You might be dressed in your nightwear but please leave your teddies etc. at home!
