Fundraising Event

Tesco & Greenspace

We’re delighted to announce that we will receive funding from Tesco and Greenspace through their Bags of Help initiative.
 However, we need your help! Please vote in-store at TESCO BARRHEAD, CLARKSTON EXPRESS, NEWTON MEARNS EXPRESS from 27 February until 6 March.

 Tesco has teamed up with Greenspace Scotland to launch its Bags of Help initiative in Scotland. The scheme will see three community groups and projects in each of these regions awarded grants of £12,000, £10,000 and £8,000 – all raised from the 5p bag charge.

 Bags of Help offers community groups and projects in each of Tesco’s regions across the UK a share of revenue generated from the five pence charge levied on single-use carrier bags. The public will now vote in store from 27 February until 6 March on who should receive the £12,000, £10,000 and £8,000 awards.

The National Parent Forum of Scotland

The National Parent Forum of Scotland has been working with Skills Development Scotland to produce some tailored information for parents, as part of their successful “in a nutshell” series, which covers the new Careers Education Standard. This new nutshell will supply parents with basic information about the initial role of this programme in schools.  Please see link below.  This has also been produced in a hard copy which will be given out to the children.

WEEE box

As part of the Eco Committee’s work toward their Green Flag, they are raising awareness of where energy comes from and how we can use it more wisely.
They have installed a Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) box at the reception which can be used to recycle unwanted electrical equipment.
The items will be recycled free of charge by East Renfrewshire Council.

We are looking for unwanted or broken computer consoles, hair-dryers, IPod, cables, mobile phones and chargers, etc.

Badminton Tournament

Last Thursday, a group of children from our Badminton after school club won the Cluster Tournament in Springhill and Auchenback.
 They achieved a fantastic 105 points out of a possible 110!

 On Tuesday 24th November, they played in the East Renfrewshire Badminton Finals and came second place in the authority. We are all very proud of this fantastic achievement and the children thoroughly enjoyed representing Barrhead and the school.
