Mrs. McLaughland, Miss Meechan and all the members of last session’s Rights Respecting Schools group would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone in the school and ECC who donated shoes to our collection for the Sal’s shoes charity on the last day of term in June. Once the shoes were boxed up, they were transported for a reduced fee by a courier to the Sal’s Shoes depot in England before being shipped, we believe, to Nigeria. It is a lovely thought that Nigerian school children who have very little, will now be going to school wearing shoes donated by Gargieston pupils. A massive thank you to Mrs. Lee (Freya and Pippa’s mum) for  coordinating the collection and transport and her band of helpers, including Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. Gear, Mrs King and others. We should all be very proud of ourselves.
