With loads of  “thanks yous” to our very hard working Community Partnership and to those families who contributed and  came along to The Race Night in Eddlewood Bowling Club. It was load of  fun and managed to raise £340 for much need school funds as End Of Year Tie Ceremonies and Certificates loom. Not many managed along so thank you again for coming and to all those who bought Tickets for the Races in advance.

Please note that  the school will be closed on MONDAY 1ST MAY for the May Bank Holiday and also THURSDAY 4TH MAY for the Local Elections.

Student Teachers Simon Malone and Kate McGarrity are currently running a very popular Computer Coding After School Club where the children are learning how to computer code their own animations. Helicopters spraying plants were some of today`s  coded animations.

We spent the Eco Club picking up litter, enjoying Treats donated by local Greggs Store and hunting out the very nasty New Zealand Flatworm. Thank you Keep Scotland Beautiful for the Litter Bibs and to Greggs .

As for the Flatworm…..these are invaders who are eating our earthworms thus  causing soil to loose its nutrients. They are found under boulders etc and don`t like to burrow like our native earthworms. To find out more just  log onto this  Opal Science Site : https://www.opalexplorenature.org/nzflatworm  where you will be able to note your discovery. It`s important for our Soil Scientists to find out the extent of the problem and from there try and control these very harmful pests.Thank you Citizen Scientists.

Come along to the Family Race Night on Friday 28th April in Eddlewood Bowling Club.
