Mary’s Meals

Classes Tiree and Arran have been learning about the work of Mary’s Meals, a Scottish Charity set up to help feed and educate children all over the world.

They shared this information with rest of school during one of our assemblies and set up a challenge to encourage pupils to  donate some bags filled with accessories like toothbrush, brush, pencils, paper etc which would be used to help others less fortunate.

The classes managed to donate 30 bags  plus extra supplies and raised £38.00.

Thank you for all your help and well done classes Tiree and Arran.

Wear What You Please Day

Wear What You Please Day

Thank you to everyone who contibuted to our Wear What You Please Day.

This was a special event organised to support one of our pupils who is a Special Olympian.

Amy from class Whalsay is a very keen Rhythmic Gymnast and is part of the West of Scotland Team taking part in the Special Olympics event in Bath.

Special Olympians have to raise their own funds to help support transport and accomodation.

It was decided to host a Wear What You Please Day and everyone paid a pound which Amy collected.

The final total has still to be confirmed but it looks like we have raised almost £200 so well done everyone.

Christmas Service 2012

Thank you to everyone who came to support our Christmas Service today, “The Magical Christmas Jigsaw”.

I’m sure you will agree that the pupils were amazing and all so confident with their parts.

After all the rehearsals with Mr Hay and class teachers, everything went well on the day. Pupils were even practising their lines at home as they wanted to make sure it was perfect.

Have a look at some of the photographs below.
