H Dillon Summer Fayre on Saturday 28 June is rapidly approaching. After last year's first ever Parochial Summer Fayre we are sure this year will be just as successful and that, fingers crossed, the weather will be kind to us. The Friends are in need on prizes for a variety of stalls including the tombola and have come up with the great idea of having a non-uniform day this Friday. Rather than bringig money in we are asking the children to bring in items that could be used as prizes e.g. sweets, chocolate or bottles. Thank you for your help with this matter.]]> tag:www.whickhamparochial.org,2008://1.154 2008-05-30T08:36:27Z 2008-05-30T08:48:34Z
