The Annual General Meeting of the Micklefield School Association will be held on Tuesday 14, March at 18:00 in the Micklefield School Hall.
Micklefield is on a drive to get as many people signing up for and using the MySchool programme to support fundraising for the school. We are saving up for school buses and all contributions via MySchool will go towards these fundraising efforts. As a part of this fundraising, we are offering HOUSE POINTS on sports day for parents who can prove they are signed up and for parents who sign up on the day.
