On Friday 20th July 2018, at the Shalfleet C of E Primary School Leavers Assembly, Chairman of Shalfleet Parish Council, Cllr Steve Cowley and Parish Councillor Helena Hewston presented those children leaving the school this term, with an Oxford English Dictionary. 24 children each received a dictionary which was signed by the Chairman of the Parish Council.
Also at the assembly a ‘large’ cheque for £5,000 from Shalfleet Parish Council was presented to Jojo Minchin and Vicky Calder, the longest standing members of Ningwood and Shalfleet PTFA. This to go towards new play equipment for the school, as the majority of the existing equipment had been condemned.
Lizzie Grainger, Headteacher, said the school were ‘over the moon’ with the kind and generous donation from Shalfleet Parish Council and they value the friendship with the Parish Council.
