Many thanks

Congratulations to our P1-3 Super Stars who received their special certificates at assembly today. Well done Lily, Blair, Emily, Abbie and Greg 🙂
Help required!!
If anyone has a van which could transport an old style roller blackboard (approx. 7ft-8ft tall) from The Dick Institute to the school this week and back at a later date, could they please let Mrs Lawson know? It is for the P7 school play and would make a terrific prop.
Many thanks,
Mrs Lawson
WW1 Play
Performance dates / times:
WEDNESDAY 7TH AND THURSDAY 8TH NOVEMBER 7PM – 8.45PM (APPROX.)
All Primary 7 children should now have two tickets for the Wednesday night performance of our play. If they do not need both tickets could one be returned for others to use? Any left over will be distributed on a first come first served basis.
The Thursday night is a community performance with local groups such as care homes and history societies being invited. However, there will still be some tickets left over. Primary 6 children who are coming along as a supporting choir, are welcome to one of these or should Primary 7 children who would also like grandparents or other relatives to see the play, can also request these tickets – again first come first served basis.
All P7 children are aware of what costumes / clothes they will need. However if anyone has a top hat we could borrow, that would be great. We actually need two of these! Many thanks.
£1000 Trim Trail Donation From Keepmoat Homes
A group of children accompanied Mrs McKee, Mrs Work and Mrs Maz to the Keepmoat Homes development to accept a donation of £1000 towards our school Trim Trail.
The school community would like to thank Ramona and the team at Keepmoat Homes for their generous donation. We have now raised over £11,000 towards our target and are confident we can achieve our total before the end of the year.
Mrs McKee and Mrs Work also met with the architectural team today who will be project managing the installation. We are on track for installation in April 2019 🙂
Many thanks to our fundraising group, parents and the wider school community for their continued support of this ambitious project.
JO Love Soccer Centre – Girls Only Football
We are considering the possibility of organising a Walking Bus from Gargieston Primary School to Ayrshire College for any of our girls who would be interested in going to participate in football.
We are looking for parent volunteers who could possibly assist on a rotational basis to allow our girls to attend these free sessions.
Save the date !
