Primary 7 collected and bought some toys to be donated to children who may not receive as much as them this Christmas. They contacted Riverkids who were happy to take all of the much needed toys from them! Well done P7 you are all very responsible citizens and should be proud of the effort you have made. Many children will now wake up on Christmas morning and have a big smile on their faces!

Blackridge pupils support Christmas Jumper Day on the 16th December and raise an amazing £210 for Save the Children!!!
