Friends and family of both Torphichen and Westfield Primary School are welcome to attend our Christmas church service on Tuesday 18th December at 9.30am in Torphichen Kirk.
We will be remembering the Nativity story through our carol singing and readings, which will be read by Olivia Stark and Duane Morrison. There will be musical performances from our string players as well as Heather Knox on the piano.
We look forward to welcoming you.
Well done Anya in P7 for her winning design for the Christmas Canvas. Her chosen design of penguins dancing will sparkle in the hall during our Christmas Shows.
Congratulations to Silvana whose Christmas Card design was chosen to be painted onto a large canvas for the Christmas show. Silvana and two of her peers then successfully drew and painted the canvas. It looks amazing! Well done Silvana and her team.
As with previous years the council has:
Maintained salt stocks.
Set up contracts with local suppliers for snow clearing support.
Provided an email alert so that regular information can be sent direct to your inbox.
Delivered refresher training to staff on all snow clearing equipment.
Published a Winter Ready supplement in the winter issue of Bulletin, the council newspaper.
The council is also asking residents and local businesses to help:
Park sensibly – abandoned vehicles can cause serious issues.
Share information with friends and neighbours, and spare a moment for vulnerable neighbours.
Sign up for the email alert on the council’s website.
If you are able, clear the path and pavement in front of your home.
Prepare your car and home ahead of the winter.
Keep the winter issue of Bulletin handy.
Parents and carers should also ensure that their child’s school has up to date contact information.
Should severe weather hit, Groupcall is the way that schools will inform parents and carers about closures.
