Mrs McDaid and the Fairtrade committee would like to thank all parents, carers, relatives and friends for attending our Fairtrade coffee morning.  It was a great success.  The children were keen to talk about the work they have been doing in class and how everyone can help farmers to get a fair price for their products.  A special mention to Glenmanor Parent Council for all their support today.  The amount raised will be posted on the Glenmanor Blog as soon as possible and all proceeds will go to the Fairtrade Foundation.

Primary 4 welcomed parents, carers, grans, papas and other family members to our school open event last Friday.  We all had a fabulous time telling our visitors interesting facts about rainbows.  Then we used a variety of mixed media, such as tissue paper, crepe paper, felt, fabric and other materials to create our wonderful rainbows.  The adults had as much fun as we did!  Primary 4 would like to say a big thank you to everyone who visited us.
