The Chronicle

The PTA are excited to announce the Autumn Preloved Book Sale! The Sale will be held on Friday 20 November from 9.00am to 11.30am.

Thank you for all the donations we have received so far, however we still need more to make this event a success. We are especially short of chapter books and books suitable for KS1.

We are also happy to take more than five books per child if you are able to spare them. The deadline has been extending to Monday 8 November.

Good examples of books suitable for Pre-Teen are as follows; The Harry Potter series, Watership Down, Alex Rider series and the Hunger Games but other suitable books are welcome.

New Event News!

This year the PTA need to be super creative with Christmas events and we are very excited to tell you about a brand new event for Crackley Hall!

Crackley’s Christmas Light Trail

This will be a treasure trail of Christmas light displays provided by Crackley Hall’s parents and teachers.

At each display there will be a letter which you will need to write down. Once you have completed the trail you will have all the letters for a Christmassy anagram which you will need to work out! Crackley families can drive around the magical trail hunting for the letters at their leisure over the week commencing Monday 7 December 2020.

There will be a prize for the winner as well as a prize for the most popular light display, as voted by all the participants!

In order to make this possible, we need lots of volunteers to provide a Christmas light display to be included on the trail map. Your displays can be as simple or as flamboyant as you like. We would just like as many households as possible to be included so we can create a really fabulous trail!

If you live within a 4 - 5ish mile radius from school and you can volunteer your Christmas light display to be included please email:

Jo Ward at PTAevents@crackleyhall.co.uk

The deadline to be included in the map is Friday 13 November.

We can’t wait to hear from you!

Friday 13 November - 7.00pm to 9.00pm

Join us on Friday 13 November from 7.00pm to 9.00pm from the comfort of your own home for Crackley Hall's first BIG PTA Online Family Quiz – the one thing that won’t be cancelled in 2020!

We encourage all Crackley Hall families and staff to come together for a fabulous night of entertainment! All ages are welcome to join in this evening, which will test everyone's knowledge, alongside entertainment from staff members, a Crackley Hall specific quiz round and an opportunity to win spectacular prizes! Tickets go on sale tonight and are £5 per family to join (£1 of which will go towards a raffle at the end of the quiz). Don’t miss the chance for your children to see Mr. Duigan himself as the ultimate quiz master! If that's not enough to tempt you, each family will be playing for your child’s house and a chance to increase their house points! 

For those of you wanting to go all out with this event, there is also an optional  themed 'A Night at the Movies' fancy dress option with prizes for the best dressed family. Let’s see how creative our Crackley Hall families and staff can be!
