The boys of girls of Leswalt Primary have been very busy raising money for Children in Need. On Friday 18th November 2011 they had a non-uniform day and pupils were encouraged to “show their spots and raise lots”.
The spottiest pupils in school were named as Tommy Kerslake, Kerr Calderwood, Eilidh Hill and Megan McIntyre.Primary 1-4 are currently doing a project on “Toys”. With help from their teacher Mrs Mc Knight, they organised a toys bring and buy sale, with all proceeds going to Children in Need. The children also invited the Little Acorns toddler group, who meet in Leswalt village hall, to come into school and “have a play”.Parents and pupils had been busy baking and there was a wonderful selection of goodies on offer for visitors to eat and children to buy for a snack. A fantastic Children in Need cake was a raffle prize, which was won by Mrs Campbell who generously donated it back to the boys and girls of the school.The children were also able to get their faces painted thanks to the artistic talents of Katie Jamieson.It was a fun filled few hours for the enterprising pupils, and with the help and support of parents £200 was raised for Children in Need.
