Senior Citizen Christmas Party

Senior Citizen Christmas Party

Coltness High School S3 ACHIEVE and Senior Hospitality groups held a Senior Citizen Christmas Party on the afternoon of Wednesday 20th December 2017. The local people who attended enjoyed a selection of tasty treats along with the entertainment by the school band, a raffle and a visit from Santa. It was a very successful event where the young people demonstrated their talents including planning, preparation and teamwork. We also managed to raise £200 for the National Autistic Society as Mr Johnston, the band leader is going to be running in the London Marathon for them in April 2018. Thank you to everyone who came along and for the donations from staff and local businesses i.e Chapmans, Denholms, Bells, Tesco and ASDA. Photographs used
