Scottish Poppy Appeal

Drongan Primary will be supporting the Scottish Poppy Appeal again this year by selling poppies. From Monday 1st November, our P7 pupils will be visiting classes with the boxes of poppies and children are welcome to bring in a donation to put in the tin in exchange for a poppy to wear. They will continue visiting classes each day while we have poppies left.

Donations for the poppies will be placed in collecting tins before being donated to the Scottish Poppy Appeal.

Thank you for your support.
