Christmas Jumper or Non-Uniform Day

Please bring a £1 donation per family to take part in our non-uniform/Xmas jumper day on Monday 14th at school and Nursery. Funds raised will go towards the Carlisle flood charity. Don’t panic if you don’t have a Xmas jumper- wear tinsel or just sing a carol!

Any last minutes presents or donations can be handed in to the office by Monday morning as Eastriggs and Hecklegirth Primary staff will be taking the huge pile to Carlisle in the afternoon- Norman Street School are delighted to have us help. If you have a present for a child, add the suitable age on the label to help them sort them out.

Many thanks for your generosity. We are proud that our community is so keen to help others in need.

Christmas Sales Team

fayreOur chocolate Christmas shapes seemed very popular at the Christmas Fayre today and were sold in no time. Well done to our great sales team who you can see here and to all those children who helped to make the chocolate.
It was great to see lots of Nursery children and their families visiting the Fayre too. We hope that you all enjoyed yourselves.

Christmas Fayre

With the school Christmas Fayre tomorrow (Thursday), we have been making chocolate Christmas shapes to sell on our stall. Discussions about what would happen when we put chocolate in the microwave then the fridge developed the children’s learning about sciences. We also used numeracy skills to count the squares of chocolate as well as reading the dial to set the microwave so there was lots of learning going on as we prepared our chocolate shapes.

We hope that lots of Nursery children and their families will be able to come to the Christmas Fayre tomorrow between 2.00 and 4.00 in school. We can certainly recommend the chocolate shapes to anyone who has a little money to spend.

Carlisle Christmas Help

Eastriggs Primary and Hecklegirth Primary want to do something to help make Christmas special for those affected by the recent floods.

We don’t want them to have to cancel Christmas so we are asking families to donate a gift, wrapped and labelled for a man, woman, boy or girl- something to wear and/or enjoy on what will be a damp festive period. It’s a simple and practical way to help and shows that we are thinking of our neighbours at this time.

Please drop off gifts to the school by Monday 14th and we will take them to Carlisle for distribution to those in need.

Thank You Grace and Kacey

We would like to say a huge thank you to both Grace and Kacey from the Rainbow Room for their very kind donations to Nursery. They have been helping to sort out their toys at home and decided to donate lots of great new toys and games for everyone to play with. Thank you very much to both families – the children have been having a great time investigating all the new activities in Nursery.
