First Aid for Malawi

Malawi posterMr Leitch and four senior pupils (Morgan Lynch, Heather McCallum, Kate Sutherland and Elizabeth Gentleman) will be flying out  to Malawi next week and are still looking for donations of basic first aid items such as plasters, bandages, antiseptic wipes and sprays, anti bacterial hand gel and so on for first aid kits  which can then be distributed to the Girls Go For Health coordinator there.

These items should be brought into the school by 1 June and we are very grateful for any donations.

Christmas Jumper Day

Calderhead High School S5 pupils organised a Christmas jumper day for Friday 18th December to raise money for the charity “Text Santa”. They encouraged staff and pupils from the school to wear a Christmas jumper on the condition that they texted a donation to Santa.

Declan, Dylan, Cameron and Connor were encouraged by Mrs Crawford to promote the event and commented “It’s igniting the Christmas spirit around the school and raises money for charity.”

The money raised will be donated to MacMillan Cancer Support, Make a Wish and Save the Children.
