Jayne Forbes came to visit Primary Five today. She works for MacMillan Cancer Support. She told us all about the fantastic support that the charity gives to families affected by Cancer. Last year they were in touch with and gave support to over 5 million people.

In Primary five we are gearing up to next weeks big event at the MacMillan Coffee Morning. We have sold out of tickets for the event with 220 tickets sold. On the day we will be selling MacMillan merchandise, cakes and hyacinth bulbs. You will also have the opportunity to take part in various competitions, including ‘Guess the Teacher’. You will get to find out what our teachers looked like as babies! Lets hope everything runs smoothly and we raise lots of money for a fantastic charity.

P4 have been thinking about the UNCRC as it celebrates 25 years. We have been discussing the “Brightest Right in our Life” and we have worked with our friends to make posters to show these rights.

All the boys and girls have been celebrating the 25th anniversary of the UNCRC. We have been exploring the ‘Brightest Right in our Lives’ and presenting it in a variety of ways. We have been discussing why the UNCRC is so important. The Rights Respecting Schools group are looking forward to creating a beautiful display to showcase our work. Keep an eye out for us on Pinterest – watch this space!
