The children can be collected at lunchtime and taken home to be dressed up or if they are staying in school, they can bring their dressing up clothes in the morning and get changed at lunchtime.

 

Children going home MUST be collected by an adult. They will leave via the school gate.

 

Please note – we are combining having fun with fundraising therefore, children dressing up should bring a £1 donation.

Taylor High School

Primary 7 have thoroughly enjoyed their visits to Taylor High School.  They participated in Maths, P.E., I.C.T. and Home Economics lessons.  On their last visit their parents were given the opportunity to come and see the children at work.  We would like to thank everyone who made our visits possible, particularly Mrs McGraw, for making us feel welcome.
