Wow, what a busy day Portpatrick Primary had! The whole school was involved in a whirlwind of fun fundraising activities for Children In Need.<\/p>\n
Class 2 were responsible citizens by organising and running the event.\u00a0 This was part of their S.T.A.R target award scheme.\u00a0 Every boy and girl participated fully in a fun packed day of activities.<\/p>\n
There were lots of competitions and prizes.\u00a0 The spottiest children from each class were judged by our catering manager, Barbara (see photo for winners).<\/p>\n
Myles Hine successfully guessed the Panda Bear\u2019s name as Bamboo and went home with a giant sized bear donated by Katie and Liam MacDonald.\u00a0 It was so big he could hardly carry it! Lachlan Ross went \u2018quackers\u2019 by backing the winning duck in the Children In Need sweepstake race \u2013 Golden Duck. He was tickled pink when he won a huge George Pig donated by Jack Trafford.<\/p>\n
The children had fun picking toys and books from our popular Bring and Buy sale.\u00a0 They enjoyed munching a cake or two as a playtime treat even more!<\/p>\n
The activities carried on into the afternoon when we all got social by dancing the Pudsey Reel to the Teddy Bear\u2019s picnic. We were ably instructed by Mrs R. Henry and her twinkle toes.<\/p>\n
Class 1 used their writing skills to compose thank you letters to all of our wonderful families who had supported our day, helping to make it a success.<\/p>\n
In total we raised the very impressive amount of \u00a3189.05. Everyone will agree the boys and girls have done a \u2018spotacular\u2019 job of helping disadvantaged children in the U.K.<\/p>\n
