So Far this Year!

The Parent Council have supported our colour run, have organised a successful Christmas Fayre, raising more money than every before!  Using some of their funds, the Parent Council helped subsidise the Christmas Cinema trip.  The Parent Council were recently successful in winning a Community Lottery bid to replace our ECC Pirate Ship.  And of course the Parent Council also subsidised the cost of the Leaver’s Hoodies!

The Parent Council successfully made a bid to Newmilns Lottery to enable the purchase of a new Pirate Ship for the ECC and have bid to the EA HWB fund to upgrade the barked area in the courtyard playground, we await the outcome of this.
