The Pupil Council have been extremely busy this year so far
planning a number of events and activities.

Our Harvest Service collection was an amazing success. The school collected 305.70kg for Erskine Foodbank which is 728 meals for people in crisis within our community.  A cheque for £55 will be sent. Many thanks for your generosity and support with this work.

Scottish Afternoon 28.11.18

Fantastic performances from all our children at our Scottish Afternoon on Wednesday 28th November in celebration of St. Andrews Day.  The children did the school proud. They performed poems, Scottish songs, guitar recital and dances. It was also lovely to see our Pr.1 children dance the ‘dashing white sergeant’ with their Pr.7 buddies.

 

Thank you to our parents, carers and friends of Inchinnan Primary who help support our school events.
