P2/3 have been learning about The Rio. They have had a visit from Betty who told them about the work The Rio does in the community to help local people and also to help people in crisis.  She told the children that, at the moment, they are working with three different projects. Firstly they offer help to local families with their ‘All Welcome’ meals and food pantry where food is freely available for those in need. Also they work with a homeless charity based in Kirkcaldy and Dundee providing sleeping bags to those sleeping rough and finally they are involved in a project that is sending warm clothes to Turkey and Syria and have already sent over a lorry full of clothing. She said that donations into the Rio of food, clothing and sleeping bags were the priority so if families could help with this it would be greatly appreciated.

The class have had a competition to design a poster to promote the important work of the Rio. Here is the winning design – well done Chrissy and Archie!
