Despite lockdown restrictions, we’re delighted to have raised more than £12,000 so far this year through donations and grants. Most recently, we raised £225 with the Bags2school collection and £244 on our reverse mufti day. It all goes towards projects and resources to support the school and the children’s learning. This year that has included 11 Chrome Books, an Ancient Greeks Workshop for year 3, rugs for the nursery, sports equipment for Covid bubbles, and more – plus funding for a new sensory garden at Park Avenue base. Thank you to everyone for your amazing support!

A new Sensory Garden at Park Avenue

Our exciting project of creating the new Sensory Garden at Park Avenue Base  is progressing well  - volunteers will be needed to help continue with the project, please look at our PTA Facebook page to keep updated or email pta.riverbridge@lumenlearningtrust.co.uk if you are able to help in any way. Any support will be appreciated, thank you.

10/10 Challenge was so successful - Thank you to those who took part in our 10/10 challenge - a fantastic sum of £2032 was raised!! This will go towards a new sensory garden for the school, plus IT equipment to support the children's learning.

Hot Dog Nights postponed
Unfortunately we’ve had to postpone the Hot Dog Nights planned for November, but we’re looking at alternative dates in December once the lockdown is over. If you’ve paid and booked already we will transfer your child to the new date – but if you’d rather have a refund, please email us at pta.riverbridge@lumenlearningtrust.co.uk

Riverbridge face masks
Our Riverbridge face masks are still available to buy. They’re made from cotton, reusable and machine washable, and there are toggles on each mask to allow for a perfect fit. You can have your child’s name, initials or a nickname printed on free of charge. Order now from www.pta-events.co.uk/riverbridge for £5 each.
