A scrumptious brunch was enjoyed by all Friday 8th February whilst making us aware of those less fortunate than us.

The Pupil Council organised tasty foods for us to buy as well as running free activities on the day.  These activities included located where foods come from on a world map, making ‘Day for Change’ pin badges and identifying seasonal fruit and vegetables.

The money raised has been sent off to UNICEF to support other children in the world who right to enough food is not being met.

Congratulations to the P7 group who successfully organised the T-Factor Red Nose Day Special.  The standard of the finalists was extremely high and we could tell they had all put a t of effort into their performances.

It was a tough job for the judges but they decided to award joint 1st place to Michael in P7 for his juggling and Kirsty in P1 for singing ‘Tomorrow’ from the musical ‘Annie’.  2nd went to Sam in P3 for his magic trick.

The lucky winner of the hamper was Aimee in P5 and from the picture I think you can tell she was very pleased with her win!

The money is still coming in but so far the total raised stands at £142!!!

Well done Anya, Olivia, Ellie and Coby!

Pupils in Primary 7 have been organising this charity fundraising event.  The auditions for the T’- Factor Final took place last Wednesday (6th February) and 9 lucky hopefuls have been put through to the final.  The final is on Thursday 21st February at 11.30am and is open to family and friends of the school.  So please come along and be entertained by our talented pupils!

During the week leading up to the T-Factor, the P7 pupils will also be selling the 2013 Red Noses, which are able to stand on their own!  So please bring along you £1 to buy one of these at any break time! 1 per pupil only.

Finally on Thursday 21st February we would like pupils to come dressed down in red and/or with a crazy hair style.  Pupils are asked to pay £1 with all proceeds going to Red Nose 2013.  If you have any questions please get it touch.
