Dear Mr Chappell, Shawley Community Primary School has sent you a message
We need your help.
Dear Parents/Carers,
The Beacon school have previously provided referees for football matches and tournaments held at Shawley. Unfortunately they are unable to provide a referee for our year 5 match on Tuesday 2nd October. Kick-off is around 3:30pm and the match will be finished by 4:30pm at the latest. If you would be willing to support us in refereeing this game and/or are keen to support with future fixtures, please inform the school office as soon as possible. We really appreciate your support with this.
Many thanks,
Miss Lefley
