Primary 5 are hosting a Halloween costume exchange this week. If you have any old costumes that no longer fit your child, can you please donate these costumes to the school this week? Primary 5 will be accepting these costumes from Wednesday-Friday. On Friday, your child will be given the opportunity to look through the donated costumes to see if they would like to pick a new, ‘recycled’, costume.
For information about the upcoming Hallowe’en Parties and meeting minutes from the Parent Council go to the website tab Getting Involved –> Parent Council for all the latest.
