Day: December 13, 2024

The school and community came together for the Parent council organised Santa dash this afternoon, after school today.

To the festive tunes from the brass band, little Santas raced round the village to raise funds for the Parent council.

All entrants were provided with a Santa hat at the start and medal at the end – many thanks to Leswalt village stores for this sponsorship.

At the end, hot chocolate, mince pies and shortbread was on hand for all – many thanks to Lidl for donating this.

Thank you also to the musicians and members of the community association who also helped out.  It was a fun event that spread the Christmas cheer round the streets of Leswalt!  The fundraising total will be announced next week.

Over the last 4 week, we’ve had the pleasure of Stuart Fisher’s company who has taken each class on a weekly basis for 30 minutes of tri-golf. We’ve covered things from hitting long range shots using drivers and irons (in our PJs as it was Children in Need!), target practise with the large sticky target, and putting. We put all of our new skills into practise through lots of fun games and activities that Stuart setup.

Thanks to Stuart for taking the time to come in to Leswalt Primary – we’ve had a fab few weeks!
