They are looking for items that they can put into a raffle, items for the tombola, donations of sweets, homebaking etc. Pupils have also been working hard at making gifts and decorations to sell. I do hope you can come and support on the day, and also hand in donations to a member of the parent council, or at the school office.<\/p>\n Christmas Parties<\/strong><\/p>\n Primary 5-7 party \u2013 16th<\/sup> December 1.15-2.55pm<\/p>\n Primary 3-4 party \u2013 16th<\/sup> December 1.15-2.55pm<\/p>\n Primary 1-2 party 18th<\/sup> December 1.15-2.55pm<\/p>\n All parties will take place in school after lunch time.

If you wish to take your child home to change then you must make arrangements with office staff and also come directly to the office to pick them up. This is to ensure rigorous security measures are in place for all pupils.
