Mrs Wilson’s Collection
Mrs Wilson will be leaving Crossmichael Primary School over the Christmas holidays. I would like to take this opportunity to thank her for her input at Crossmichael and Gelston Primary Schools. To recognise her contribution to both schools over the years, we will be having a collection for her. If you wish to contribute then please send donations to the school office by Tuesday 17th December.
Stewartry Dance Competition – Tuesday 10th Dec from 10am-12pm
We wish our dancers well as they participate in the Stewartry Dance Competition tomorrow in Castle Douglas Town Hall.
Worms
Often children will catch threadworms. It can be distressing for children and parents/ guardians but it is easily treatable. Advice can be found on the NHS website using this link: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/Threadworms/ . In the new year, I would be happy to arrange a workshop with the School Nurse for any interested parents/ guardians.
