Christmas Fair
The school community and PTA were delighted that parents and grandparents turned out in such amazing numbers to support our Christmas Fair. It was a fabulous event with many stalls selling out fast. Santa was busy all morning with a long line of excited children eager to make sure he knew exactly what they would like for Christmas. A huge thank you to everyone who supported this great school event – the list is extremely long and includes our great staff team, wonderful children and amazing PTA who worked tirelessly behind the scenes in preparation for the day. Quite amazing! Please watch out for the announcement in regard of how much money was raised for school funds.
Room 15 Mannequin Challenge
The boys and girls of Room 15 were desperate to share the latest craze – mannequin challenge. If it was good enough for Hilary Clinton then why not!
St.Andrew’s Tea
Last Friday the Infant Department was packed out as the boys and girls of Room 1,2 and 3 played host to parents and grandparents for St.Andrew’s Day. The boys and girls entertained with song and shared their learning with their parents. Traditional Scottish fair was on offer with everyone tucking into a plate a haggis, neeps and tatties. A delightful afternoon was shared by everyone.
St.Andrew’s Day Concert
Congratulations to all the boys and girls for putting on such a polished performance on the 30th November to celebrate St.Andrew’s Day. You were a real credit to your teachers. Learning all those verses was a real accomplishment. It was lovely to be joined by a representative of MacMillan Nurses who came along to receive a cheque for £510.67 thanks to our Coffee/Tea morning way back in September. We were also joined by Lindsay from St.Andrew’s Hospice who recrived a cheque for over £500 thanks to donations and the sale of raffle tickets that afternoon. Many thanks to everyone for your great generosity.
