P1 Mums night <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The feedback from the night was very positive with 50\/60 mums attending across all the classes.\u00a0 It was thought it was a very worthwhile evening and the plan going forward would be to hold this event in late September.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. \u00a0Ceilidh Update<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Carmichael Hall is booked for the event on Friday March 21<sup>st<\/sup> from 6-10pm with the event taking place from 7-9.30pm.<\/p>\n<p>The St Rochs Ceilidh band have also been booked.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst ticket sales were initially slow they are now starting to pick up.\u00a0 However a further advertising push will take place and Mr Jamieson will issue a further request for tickets, and the mediums of the school website, face book and twitter will also be used. \u00a0\u00a0It was stressed that spreading the word in the playground was also essential in making the event a success.<\/p>\n<p>It is a BYOB event.\u00a0 Joe will investigate new ERC regulations that involve having a designated BYOB area.

Joe wondered if we could have a return of the plant stall and\u00a0 Mr Jamieson suggested the school may become involved as they now have their own allotment! Craft stalls were discussed, \u00a0but due to lack of space it was thought this will be more suitable once the new school campus becomes available.\u00a0 Considerable thought to the layout will be required with as many activities as possible being held outside.\u00a0 This of course will be weather permitting and several members of the committee offered Gazebos as a potential solution.\u00a0 It was thought the ever popular teddy stall will once again make a return.
