P7 Leavers’ Events June 2015
P7 Leavers’ Beach Party, The Knights of St Columba
Thursday 11 June, 7-9pm
Our P7 leavers’ beach party will take place in the main hall of Knights of St Columba and will run from 7-9pm. One of our parents, Mr McClean will be DJ and Alex Graham Caterers will be provide burgers, wedges and ice cream The school will provide drinks.
This event is informal, and the focus is very much on the children relaxing and having fun together.
We have planned this special event to ensure that parents/carers do not have any additional expense. We also want to create an experience that includes everyone and therefore, we respectfully ask that children come dressed casually, not formally. We discourage the hiring of limousines for the same reasons.
Each pupil must be collected by an adult from the venue at 9.00pm.
P7 Graduation Ceremony, Glenmanor Primary School Hall
Friday 19 June, 1.30pm-2.30pm
We would like to invite our P7 parents and carers to join us for this very special event. Doors will open from 1pm and the graduation will begin at 1.30pm.
The graduation will feature a presentation by the P7 pupils followed by the presentation of school cups.
P7 pupils have planned a very ambitious modern programme to show off their talents including singing, acting and dancing. There are also a few surprises too.
Our invited guests will then present the school cups in recognition of outstanding achievement in 6 categories – Effective Contributor, Confident Individual, Responsible Citizen, Successful Learner, Outstanding Sports Person and Exceptional Team Player. All members of staff have voted to select the recipients of each school cup.
The graduation will last until approximately 2.30pm when our infant choir will sing and light refreshments and snacks will be served in our community garden, weather permitting.
Summer Service, Glenmanor Primary School Hall
Wednesday 24 June, 9.30-10.30am

Can you help?
We have two hard working volunteers in our school gardens but our gardens are bigger than two people!
If you, or someone you know, can spare some time to help in our school gardens, please contact the school and we can make arrangements for you to be disclosed. Sharon Nicol, former Parent Council Chairperson is available on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursday afternoons to help you with the disclosure process, which only takes a few minutes.
