Supporting our Local Community and Fundraising are a big part of our school.
We have a close relationship with our friends at Fairknowe House Care Home in Maybole. The residents visited the school for a special performance of our Christmas Show – Jock and the Beanstalk. In return we went on tour to perform our Scottish Celebration. It was a huge success and it ended in a singalong of The Jeely Piece Song! The residents recently came to a special Spring Celebration afternoon at the school, we decorated eggs and enjoyed hot cross buns and a blether!
Our fundraising and charitable donations this year include £102.30 for MacMillan Cancer Care at our Coffee Morning in September and £33.45 for Children in Need in November. We also donated to the South Ayrshire Foodbank and The Night before Christmas Campaign in December. In March we smashed a sponsored netball shoot raising a massive £196.43 for Comic Relief on Red Nose Day.
Not bad for a small school of 20 children and their parents and relatives!
