On Friday 20th November, Portpatrick Primary held a family open afternoon. Despite the inclement weather, this was well attended by parents, siblings and grandparents. In preparation for Christmas, families participated in craft based activities with the boys and girls.
As part of our Eco School’s Waste targets, the pupils organised a Bring and Buy sale to recycle unwanted tots and books. We also made Christmas craft decorations to sell to fund raise for Children in Need. In total we raised £150.06 . The children were then given an opportunity to select a toy from the items to promote our ‘re-use’ initiative before the remaining items were taken to a local charity shop to further help others. A fun afternoon was had by all.
