You're Invited- Our Big Lunch Community Event
We’re excited to invite you to The Big Lunch – a special community event at Co-op Academy New Islington on Friday 13th June, starting at 3:30 p.m. straight after school.
This will be held in the school hall and outside (weather permitting), and it's a brilliant opportunity for our whole school community to come together. We’re also welcoming the families of children who will be joining us in Reception this September – we want them to see first-hand what an amazing, welcoming community we are.
We’ll be serving two homemade chillis – one meat and one vegan – with rice and bread rolls. We’re asking families to buy a £1 ticket per person via the Arbor school app so we can gauge interest and know how many people we’ll be catering for.
There’ll be music, party games, and a lovely relaxed atmosphere! Drinks will be available to buy, and a full list of ingredients will be displayed on the day for anyone with allergies or dietary requirements.
We’ll also be asking each year group to donate a specific ingredient nearer the time, so please watch this space for what to bring. These donations mean that everyone plays a part in making the event happen – a true team effort that brings our school community together.
If you’re able to help with cooking, serving, or tidying up afterwards, we’d really appreciate it. Please email me at georgina.wild@coopacademies.co.uk if you can lend a hand – as always, your support makes all the difference.
We can’t wait to see you there!
