In the saddle and Santa helper contest

 It's a easy a riding a bike ... 
But not until you have learnt to cycle and it takes time and patience.
Teacher Mr Mdachi has been showing some of our children how it's done and once they have found their balance and confidence they are off.
Thank you to Kezia and Hassan for taking the pictures.

Get switched on with Santa

The search is on for one  lucky young lady or gent to stand with Santa  and switch on the festive lights at Marsh Mill Shopping Village Christmas Market, Thornton, Lancashire, on Sunday, November 29.
Children are being asked to paint, colour or fabric a picture and tell in more than 50 words (with help from a grown up if needed) why they would want to switch on the Christmas lights.
Entries are £1 each  with all proceeds coming to our Happy House to help finish, furnish and open our secondary school.
They can be dropped off or posted, clearly named and with a contact number, to Grace & Favour, 17 Marsh Mill Shopping Village, off Fleetwood Road, Thornton Cleveleys, FY5 4JZ.  A winner will be drawn on Saturday November 14.

Bag yourself a bag for life

From this week, shoppers in UK stores will (in most cases) be charged 5p for a carrier bag.
 So maybe now is the time to treat yourself, or a friend, to a Happy House recycled cotton bag for life.
They are £5 (plus £1 p&p within UK) with all proceeds going directly to  Happy House - contents NOT included!!!
