Gosberton Academy is full of festive cheer this year

Gosberton Academy has been getting into the festive spirit thanks to its PTFA.

A total of £1,677 was raised for the organisation which provides items and experiences for the school.

Within the last few weeks of school the group paid for all pupils to attend Blackfriars Theatre, Boston, to watch the pantomime Dick Whittington.

They also put on a Christmas lunch for everyone in the school.

Local businesses were among those to donate prizes for competitions to the Christmas Fair.

Tom Baxter, headteacher at Gosberton Academy, said: “The Christmas Fair was another fantastic event and one that was very enjoyable.

“It was great to see so many of our families there having fun and enjoying themselves but it was equally enjoyable to see members of the local community and some prospective parents there too.

“The PTFA is so supportive and the money they raise makes a huge difference.

“I cannot express how grateful we are for the support of all of our families – their support to the PTFA events goes so far to helping so many of our learners in so many different ways.”
