A huge thank you to all of the children who participated in our recent Children in Need activity.  By dressing up or dressing down and making a donation for taking part, the children raised a fantastic £170.05.  Many thanks for your ongoing support with the schools fundraising activities.

The children of P4/3 are working very hard getting ready for their class assembly and are excited to welcome their guests to come along and watch them perform.  Assembly starts at 9.30am and as children are moving around the school preparing to attend assembly we ask that guests wait patiently outside the school building until the children are ready to welcome you to join them at approximately 9.20/9.25am.

If your child is participating in the assembly then can we ask that you please check their homework diary for messages from their teacher.  Unless otherwise advised in their diary, can children please dress in normal clothes in order to appear as village people.  Children can come to school dressed for their part with school clothes to change into after the assembly if you wish.

Mrs McGeoch is delighted with the effort and enterprising junk modelling activity that the children have completed and is looking forward to welcoming you to this event.

Next Event: Christmas Raffle.

Raffle ticket envelopes will be sent home with the children.  The envelope will contain 5 strips of tickets totalling £5.
If you wish to buy, please buy in full strips (£1 each) tear off half and keep, then enclose the money with the other half of the strip.  It’s important that your child’s name and class is written clearly on the back of the strip being returned to the school.   Raffle ticket envelopes will be sent home by 5th December and must be returned back to the school by Wednesday 16th December.    If you have any items you would like to donate towards the raffle, chocolates, new unwanted gifts or toys please drop them into the school office.
