A HUGE thank you to all the parents, grandparents and family members from the school and ECC who attended our Christmas Fayre !

Thanks also  to those who donated raffle prizes, tombola gifts, bottles and baking – we were overwhelmed by your generosity!!

Very special mention goes to the parents and grandparents who volunteered their time to help set up the Fayre on Thursday after school  and all those parents who helped to man the stalls on the day of the Fayre.  We definitely couldn’t have done it without you!!!

The total raised at present is somewhere around £4000 – a fabulous total which is far beyond our expectation, which will help to support the learning of all our pupils, particularly through IT.

            There is still the opportunity to purchase tickets for the following

The grand raffle – 50p per ticket

Food hamper raffle – 50p per ticket

The scooter raffles – 50p per ticket

Please send appropriate money in an envelope with your name, your child’s name and class, total amount in envelope  and information about which raffle and how many tickets you require. Pupils will organise this and tickets will be sent home.

On Monday afternoon, the second circle assembly group and P3B parents and grandparents were superbly entertained by Mrs. Baird and Mr. Smith’s boys and girls. We learned lots about St. Andrew, the patron Saint of Scotland. P3B narrators told the story of St. Andrew, there was a Scottish poem and everyone sang Scottish songs to help us celebrate St. Andrew’s Day which happens this Thursday on the 30th November. Our guests even had the chance to enjoy homemade shortbread in Base 2!! Thank you so much, P3B,. You are stars!!
