Art on the Hill 2012

Posted on February 22, 2012 by admin

Art on the Hill returns  Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th May 2012.

We already have confirmation from many artists that they will be attending this hugely successful and key fundraising event for Brill School.

Last year we raised over £7,000.00 for much needed resources for our school and we hope to get somewhere near that again this year.

The art exhibition will host many different types of artists from far and near and will include some sculpture and free standing exhibits.  We will also have a market place where local companies can sell wonderful goodies from handmade cards to jewellery and household items.

Our café will offer delicious refreshments and homemade cakes galore…

This year we are planning on offering some wonderful workshops which so far include two watercolour painting courses bookable in advance with limited spaces. Keep a look out for more information.

If you would be interested in exhibiting or taking part in the Market place please make contact with a member of the committee by emailing brillpta@gmail.com.

Message from the school

Posted on February 6, 2012 by admin

This is a message from Headteacher Mr Leach on 6th February:

We have been made aware of a problem with the water supply to Brill.

Thames Water are delivering bottles of water to the village in anticipation of a disruption to supply.  We have no further details at present but understand there is a chance water could be off for a considerable period of time.  If this is the case unfortunately we would have no option but to close the school.

We will assess the situation early tomorrow morning and post an update on the school website.

Summer Fete – save the date

Posted on January 31, 2012 by admin

This year’s PTA summer fete will be on Saturday 7th July, at the school. The theme is yet to be decided, but with the jubilee and the Olympics both happening this summer, there’s plenty of potential to build on the tremendous success of last year’s fete.

More details to follow as the spring progresses.

Friday fun with the PTA

Posted on January 26, 2012 by admin

It’s here at last. Friday 27th January is fun day with the PTA. Banish those winter blues with two great PTA events on Friday.

We start with the Big Brill Breakfast. Now well established in the PTA calendar, this is a great chance to indulge yourself in a hearty and warm breakfast to begin your Friday.

Come and have breakfast anytime between 7.45 a.m. and 8.30 a.m. £4 per person to include bap with sausage, bacon, egg, coffee, orange juice. What a start to the morning!

Order your tickets by texting 07989 258919 (Julie B) with your name.

On Friday evening is the Annual PTA Quiz Night. This year we have a new quizmaster and a new format, which should be even better than before, if that’s possible.

Teams will answer rounds of questions on subjects ranging from Geography to Cats, and Sport to Summer.

Watch out for the half time rounds to get your brain moving whilst you enjoy supper.

Combine this with the traditional fish and chip supper and licenced bar, and you have the recipe for a great evening.

All in all a great day in prospect.
