Primary 7 will be walking to Grange and then into Kilmarnock town centre on Tuesday. They are going to be photographing some of the wonderful architecture in the John Finnie Street area, The Palace Theatre, The Dick Institute – to name just a few places.
However, we currently have no parents to assist and can not go without extra adults, If you enjoy a long walk and are able to help, please click on the title above to reply or contact Mrs Lawson on Monday morning.
Many thanks.
Thank you so much to everyone who baked and handed in cakes for our MacMillan Coffee Morning. Special thanks to Elaine Kerr and Pat Wilson for their invaluable help on the day.
A final total is still to be finalised, however, we do know that over £300 has been raised for this amazing charity.
Well done, Primary 7 for all your hard work and making it all happen!
Pupils in base 1 have been learning all about FARMS and have been busy making scarecrows which will be on display at the 5th Harvest Festival at Dean Castle and Country Park on Sunday 30th September. There are great prizes to be won and hopefully we have a winner. If you are free on Sunday afternoon why not pop along to join the fun.
