Community Unity………. “Harmony”

Harmony by Community Unity

What an amazing performance from the pupils involved in the drama performance of “Harmony”

This drama performance incorporated pupils from St Cadoc’s, Crookfur and Isobel Mair school who come together on a regular basis as part of their Community Unity Partnership.

Last nights performance was produced and directed by Pace Theatre school who worked with the three schools and then they all came together for 2 full day rehearsals culminating in last nights amazing performance.

Please read below the comments sent in today from one of our parents Mr Tunde Cockshott………

“Tonight was fantastic. It was a great pleasure in so many ways. The show, the way the children performed, the concept and the Inclusion. Of course Ruby was the star, but everyone played their part.
It’s so inspiring to see the school, the community working together on projects like this. It demonstrated true, deep inclusion, able bodied, special needs, religion.
As I walked Ruby out of the hall where the children had gathered, she was like a presedential candidate, glad handling everyone, every child and adult she passed. Greeting them all and smiling, and they were smiling back. They all seemed to know her by name. This is true inclusion and a benefit to all those involved.

A great evening.
Please send my thanks to everyone involved”.

Winter Wonderland Thank You

Thank You to everyone involved and who came to support our Christmas Winter Wonderland Christmas Fair last Wednesday evening.

The event was a huge success and we were delighted to have pupils from St Cadoc’s and Crookfur Primary schools who came along and supported us with the joint carol singing as part of Community Unity.

The Christmas Light Switch on took place whilst the choir sang some Christmas carols and our special visitor “Santa” was delighted to have the honour of pressing the switch.

We had Christmas stalls, face painting, raffles, games, nail zone and much more, celebrating the enterprise activities of all the pupils.

A fantastic community event supporting life in the Isobel Mair School and Family Centre, bringing everyone together on a fun evening and at the same time raising a fantastic amount for school funds.

Community Unity Celidh

Last Wednesday saw Loch Ness Corridor join in with our local primary schools as part of the Community Unity initiative at the Annual Eastwood High School Ceilidh. Previously known as ‘Twinning’, Community Unity is the extension of the anti-sectarian message developed in both St. Cadoc’s and Crookfur Primary Schools.

A busy programme of events is scheduled throughout the school year and Isobel Mair School has now been invited to take part, taking our place as active participants within our new school community. 

The Ceilidh was a great success and was well attended by Primary 7 pupils from Crookfur and St. Cadoc’s and a mix of pupils from our Primary Department. 

Pupils were entertained by our Scottish Country Dancing Team, “Reels on Wheels” and an ambulant dance was also performed to a great reception. Well done to all our pupils! 

This Thursday we will welcome pupils from St Cadoc’s who will be performing for our pupils in our MOD. More details to follow.
