FOEG Season Cards and Gifts
Once again the festive winter season is looming across the frosty horizon and FOEG are running our yearly Class Fundraising shop where you can buy cards and gifts that have your child’s design on it. These make perfect gifts for family and a way to send unique cards whilst raising money for FOEG to be invested back into the school. For every sale, we get 20% commission.
- For children in Nursery, Reception, and Years 1 and 2, the children will be drawing their design in class.
- For those in Years 3-8 your children should have brought home a personalised from ‘Class Fundraising’ this week. Over half term we ask the should you wish to partake, your children complete their design and return to the school by Monday 3rd November.
Once the designs have been processed you will get an individual Christmas order card with a bespoke code. You can then login in online via the weblink provided to order your items. These will be sent to the school where they will be sent home with your child. We will post updates and reminders, so for now, we will let the artists get to work!

Edge Grove Celebrating Diversity: Community Recipe Book Launch!
We’re excited to unveil the Friends of Edge Grove Community Recipe Book, a beautiful collection of recipes contributed by families across the school. It’s a delicious way to celebrate the rich diversity within our community – and a great gift idea too!
We warmly invite children, parents, grandparents (and even teachers!) to think about their favourite recipes and share them with our school community. Whether it’s a treasured family dish, a cultural classic, or a fun twist on a favourite meal – we’d love to include it!
Each recipe entry will earn house points, so get creative and get involved!
Keep an eye on your child’s school bag for a brief with more details about the event and how to submit your recipe.
