As part of First Communion preparation, we decided that we should give something back to the groups in our local community. We know that there are a number of groups in our community that selflessly give up their time to help us. So we came up with our ‘Community Cafe’ idea!

For the next two weeks, we’re inviting members of our local community into St. Bartholomew’s for tea, coffee, sandwiches, cakes and a good old natter with Primary 4. We’ll be doing all the work while our customers put their feet up and enjoy some delicious food!

Our preparations started today and we were very lucky to welcome another special visitor into our classroom…

 

 

 

Mrs Davidson has just set up her very own business called Spindl. She and her partner help other businesses to get better at what they do. She talked to us today about the things that we will need to think about when we’re setting up our community cafe. We really impressed Mrs Davidson with our enthusiasm…

 

 

First of all, our Advertising Team brainstormed some names for our cafe. Then they asked the other teams for their opinion. We decided on ‘Cafe Combo’! Then it was over to the other teams to get started with their tasks. We made super progress today and really impressed Mrs Davidson with our enthusiasm and initiative. We welcome our first customers to Cafe Combo next Thursday 28th May! A big thanks to Mrs Davidson for helping us to get started.

We also managed to finish our First Communion banners this week. Here they are displayed in our school…

 

 

Just over 3 weeks to go! Have a great weekend everyone!
