Dear Parents
What a fabulous time we all had at the disco last week!
A huge thank you to all the Parents and Staff who
helped to make the event such a success. We raised
over £400 in total with a further £80 from own clothes
day adding to the terrific total for the PTA fund.
Year 4 have written their own news reports from the
night which you can read in this newsletter.
Students thoroughly enjoyed the ‘Money Sense’
workshops with volunteers from Natwest on Monday.
Activities included ‘Planning a Party’ and running a
‘Smoothie Stall’ which help to build Student
understanding of money and business as part of their
economic education and well being.
Canon Frank joined us on Wednesday for Liturgy with
the Infants where he discussed ‘ The Mysteries’ and all
the questions we can ask God.
Next week raffle tickets will go on sale for our
‘Christmas Hamper Raffle’. Ms Hogsden is busy getting
the hampers ready which will include prizes from
Cladish, Holiday Activity Club vouchers, Handbags, Toys
and other goodies. If any Parents would like to donate
prizes for the raffle, please bring all donations to the
school office as early as possible next week.
We have already had two Parents volunteer to join our
Laleham Lea lecture programme in 2020. Once we have
enough volunteers we will put together the lecture
programme to inspire our Students.
I hope you all enjoy a lovely weekend with your
families.

LL DISCO DANCE BREAKOUT 2019 Reporter: Raza
Glitter, foam, sparkles, fun! Read on to find out more.
On the 15th November 2019, Captain Fantastic and the Lale-
ham Lea School danced and enjoyed from 3.30pm until
5.30pm at St Mark’s Church in Purley.
There were glow sticks being sold as well as hotdogs which
tasted delightful!
The dance moves and talents being shown were amazing as
the dance floor was dominated by children. There was even a
Rock Legend contest which parents joined in.
Captain Fantastic the incredible DJ commented, ‘This is one of
the most fun schools I have ever been to!’
Such events should be held regularly to promote friendship,
healthy competition and the school sprit! All in all this was a
night to remember.
Reporter: Patrick
The school Disco happened on the 15th November at about
roughly 3:30-5:30 and it was a great success.
Some details from the event, is the fact that DJ Captain Fan-
tastic was actually truly fantastic!
I am saying this because he played some great games with the
children and he lifted their Spirits persuading them to dance the
night away.
There was also juice cartons =50p, crisps =50p hotdogs =£2.50,
glow sticks =1.00 and glow brackets =50p or three for £1.
Some people who attended said “I liked watching the groovy
moves and it was a fun infested afternoon.”
We should have more events like this because it is great fun for
the children and for the adults who were watching the great
entertainment.
Fun Filled Fest at Laleham Lea
Laleham Lea holds a disco party with over 100 people attending!
In St Mark’s on the 15th of November the Laleham Lea School held a
dancing disco with lots of fun and partying.
There was a DJ and glow sticks selling along with lots of snacks, food
and drinks all sold at bargain prices.
The DJ Captain Fantastic played some cool songs and had everyone
dancing. I asked one of the parents what they thought of the disco.
They replied: ‘It was great to see the children having such a great
time and enjoying themselves.’
Before the party started there was a mufti day where all the children
could dress-up in their disco clothes. This made about £90 as well
the disco tickets which were sold at £5 each.
The school managed to raise over £400 in total which proves the
disco’s success.

Everyone in Laleham Lea was invited to the hottest
disco ever!
It took place at St Marks church Purley on the 15th
November 2019.
There were ninety tickets sold each for £5, it was from
3:30 – 5:30.
An extra estimate of £100 was raised for mufti day.
There were bubbles and snow, in the centre was one of
the best DJs in the world, Captain Fantastic!
The Deputy head of Laleham Lea said ”It’s a joy to see
all of the children having fun, while also raising money! I
think we should have a lot more school discos!”

Nursery News—by Miss Hogsden
This week Nursery have been looking at the topic ‘Mixing
Colours’ and the children enjoyed participating in a variety of
activities to reflect their understanding.
Working in small groups they used food colouring and pipettes
to mix colours together and explore the different effects made.
The children have also been:
Creating their own colour sums
Using a variety of sticking materials to create their own
coloured collage
Completing a science experiment (Water colour stretchy skin)
and predicting what might happen next.
Thank you to the three volunteers
from NatWest's Money Sense pro-
gramme who came in on Monday to
run workshops with Students.
Money Sense workshops provide
bank employees with volunteering
opportunities that can make a differ-
ence in the community, while schools
benefit from the real-life experience
and expertise that volunteers can
bring to young people’s learning in
the classroom.
Year 1&2 took part in ‘What is Mon-
ey’, Year 3&4 enjoyed ‘Super
Smoothie Workshop’ whilst Year 5&6
planned used their experience of the
School Disco last week for ‘It’s Party
Time’.
