Next Friends Meeting – please read

We had intended to hold the next Friends of UVHS Performing Arts meeting on Tuesday 4th December. However, due to date clashes this cannot now happen, and there is no other space in the next 2 weeks to hold the meeting. Therefore the next meeting will be on TUESDAY 8th JANUARY: please could we have some support?

However, we do have to make arrangements for the Christmas Festival on Wed 19th December – for this we need parents to help with both programme and raffle sales on the night. Please email Mr Butler (rbu@uvhs.uk) if you are able to help – people need to be at The Coro before the doors open at 6.40pm.

We also need donations of some quality raffle prizes – please help if you can (items can be brought to the Performing Arts office).

Finally – attached below is an open letter from the treasurer of The Friends of UVHS Performing Arts.  Please take a minute or two to read it.

Open letter to all parents
