Thank you to the parents who put so much effort into this year’s Elf Shelf. The pupils were absolutely delighted with all of the presents they were able to buy for their family and friends.

Christmas Extravaganza
Christmas Extravaganza at Ellon Primary
Last Saturday Ellon Primary School held a hugely successful Christmas Extravaganza to raise money for school funds. There were cakes, sweets, jewellery, hair accessories, chocolate and many more stalls for people to visit and purchase their Christmas presents. The P1, P2 , P2/3 and P3 also had fantastic enterprise stalls selling cakes, Christmas pudding lolly pops, Christmas decorations, present tags and food for the birds. Children and teachers came along to sell what they made. Any profit that the classes made will be spent by the class and the teachers and children can decide what to buy.
There was a cafe where you could have soup, biscuits, mince pies, coffee or tea. Mums and dads liked that.
The arts and craft room was really popular and lots of children made Christmas decorations and other things. In the crafty room you could also play a game and buya raffle.
For lots of children the highlight was a visit to Santas Grotto.
The day was a fantastic success and we all enjoyed it.

PUMPKIN PARTY
Pumpkin Party Fun!
At the Pumpkin Party there were three DJs called Jim, Steve and Luke. Some people dressed up as scary monsters like witches, pumpkins, devils, zombies and two people wore morphsuits! Who were they? There was a pumpkin contest with all the best pumpkins ideas anyone could come up with! The P1 to 3 winner was Scarlett. The P4 to 5 winner was Jennifer and the P6 to 7 winner was Jade. Everyone had a really good time and the music was blaring loudly. Gangman Style was on, Sorry for Party Rocking, Party Rock Anthem, YMCA and lots more groovy tunes. The DJs were dancing with us and putting on songs that we requested. The night was awesome and everyone who was there had a GREAT TIME!!!!

Ellon Primary Stall Popular on Gala Day
Our Golden Jubilee stall proved to be very popular on the day of the Ellon Gala. Members of our Parent Council set up a display of photographs of staff and pupils through the decades.
The stall had many visitors who reminisced about old times at the school. The 1960’s style sweets went down a treat with the children and the water bottles and pens with our limited edition Golden Jubilee logo were selling
like hot cakes. These items will be available along with other limited edition products, tee shirts, polo shirts, mugs and pencil cases on our celebration day on Friday 15th June.
