PA RACE NIGHT/INTERNATIONAL FOOD THEME This is our 1st event of the school year, also it’s “FREE”. A race night coupled with an International food theme, this event is to welcome the new year 7’s and make then feel at home at St. Catherine’s. As I said, the evening is “FREE”, apart from a few pence for having a bet on the races! It’s your chance to get to know other parents in your year and throughout the school, not forgetting the PA people, who will be there for a chat and taking part/helping out! The INTERNATIONAL FOOD THEME has been used successfully in recent years. All we ask, if you are coming along, is to bring along a plate of your local cuisine, “finger food” nothing too fancy required! For all to try.
We look forward to meeting you all over a glass of wine or a soft drink and a cheer for the winning horses/jockeys! If you are coming and will be bringing a food dish, please do let me know, using my email address shown below.
