Stage Challenge 2016

 At the start of 2016 the stage challenge crew are putting together a piece to perform at the Horncastle Arena in May 2016 we are looking for year 7&8s (2016) to help us make this possible. You don't have to be the best dancer, but you need to be able to turn up to practices which will be every Wednesday afternoon. The theme is Refugees. We are going to have a fun, amazing, epic talented crew.

Christmas Hampers

Christmas Hampers

This year, as a substitute for Secret Santa, St Martins School will be collaborating with the Christchurch Methodist Mission to help provide for families this Christmas. We will include things in the hampers like presents for their children, food for a Christmas meal, and Christmas crackers. Some appropriate foods could be: Christmas cake, chocolate, lollies, tinned fruits, fruit juice, and useful items like flour, sugar and washing powder. More information will come to each syndicate about the families they will be providing for, so you can base your presents on this. This project will finish at the end of week 8, so get collecting!

Thanks, the Student Council
