From the PA:
Dog Show Take 2!!!
The SHOW must go on!!! Looking forward to the 2nd attempt at the RMDS DOG SHOW this coming Saturday, 9th May! Hope to see as many there as possible! The forecast is not brilliant - but there is a contingency plan in place! If the park is rained off, the Show will go ahead in the School Yard as there is plenty of cover there! Dog Trainer, Organic Treats, Doggy Accessories, Refreshments all ready for the big day!
Sports Day
The RMDS sports day will take place on 7th June from 11am in Sandford Park School. This is always a great day - but it does rely on volunteers for it to run smoothly! If any parents would like to help out on the day please let your PA Class Reps know! Thank you!
