Christmas Fair
Thank You to all the pupils, staff, parents and friends for all their help and support with our Christmas Fair last night. I’m sure you will agree it was a huge success.
We raised the magnificent sum of £2020.67.
All the classes had been involved in creating crafts or organising the tombola or donations for the Giving Table. We had some very creative ideas.
Some of our senior pupils organised an auction as part of their Duke of Edinburgh award. Thank you to Alex, William, Rachel and Olivia for supporting this on the evening and starting off the bidding………
A donation from the auction will be sent to Macmillan Cancer Care as part of their charity work.
A huge shout out to the pupils from IMS, St Cadoc’s and Crookfur primaries who sang in the Community Unity choir. They entertained us with 3 carols and even added in some Makaton signing.
Well done everyone and a special thanks to Mrs McKinnon for organising the fair this year.
Eat and Meet with Santa
Thank you to Miss Helmore who arranged a wonderful breakfast and meet with Santa this morning at the Capelrig, Newton Mearns.
Pupils set off this morning with the wind blowing and walked to the local restaurant, excited to be meeting Santa.
Pupils made choices for breakfast and some brought their own snacks.
Pupils were so excited when they heard the sounds of the bells and finally Santa made an appearance.
Santa visited all the tables and spoke with them all and was even presented with a picture that one of the boys from Class Tiree had coloured in.
A great morning for everyone and not only did we get to meet Santa but we were able to generalise some of the skills we have been working on in school.
Have a look at some of our photographs from a wonderful experience.
