Arrangements are well underway for our Christmas Fair. The P7 Enterprise Committee are  working very hard to plan a fun filled day.

They plan to have a cake and candy stall, hot dogs, tombola, toy stall, lucky dip, wheel of fortune,  a visit from Santa and a raffle. Any donations for the above stalls would be greatly appreciated.

If your child intends to visit Santa, please return the consent from ASAP, as this will allow the elves to prepare.

Parent helpers are required on Saturday 27 November. Please inform the office if you are able to volunteer.

Auchengeich Colliery 56th Annual Memorial Service

1 Comment

It was drizzly day as the choirs from Glenmanor and St Michael’s Primaries waited patiently for the service to begin. They sung beautifully  ‘Give Me Joy in My Heart’ and ‘Going Home’  and their behaviour was excellent. Well done everyone!

There was a great turnout from the community to support the service.

Willie Doolan, Secretary opened the service and Danny Taylor, Chairman, remembered the 47 miners who lost their lives 56 years ago. David Collins, from Moodieburn & District played while the names were read out. Then there was the laying of the wreaths.

Rev Mark Malcolm read from the Bible then Elaine Smith, MSP,  and Provost Jim Robertson, NLC, both read a dedication and Father Michael Briody said a prayer.

Nicky Wilson, President of NUM read a dedication and Captain John Parry, Salvation Army read the benedition at the end of the service.
