Monday shout-out for extra-curricular achievement!

Well done to Mia (P5) for taking part in her ballet recital at the Nevis Centre this weekend. She’s been attending lessons all year to lead up to this, and did a fantastic job on the night!

She’s looking forward to attending a dance camp this summer before returning to lessons after the summer 😊🩰

Today is Nystagmus Awareness Day and Ellie one of our P3s who has Nystagmus wanted to help build people’s understanding. Yesterday all the P1-3’s did some learning about how Nystagmus can make some things difficult for Ellie. Since the theme of this years awareness day is Ellie thought of something people may not realise and that was sometimes steps appear like a slide to her.

Learn more about Nystagmus through the Nystagmus Network

Huge thanks to Jenna Grant and all who helped to pull together our Bingo summer fundraiser at the end of May. Also to everyone who attended, and all the businesses who donated raffle prizes this year.

We were delighted to raise a total of £1354.50 after expenses. This money goes into our fundraising account to help support things like school trips, including time at Glencoe Outdoor Centre, skiing lessons, horse riding, tubing, and a trip to Landmark this week, to name but a few.

We couldn’t give the kids all these wonderful experiences without your help and generous donations, so a huge thank you from all the pupils to everyone that contributed in some way.

And good luck for the National in October! This time it’s in Glasgow (Glaschu).

One of our pupils, Eryn, has dreamt up a fantastic fundraiser to raise awareness and funds for nature conservation and The Scottish Wildlife Trust. She would be delighted if you could sponsor her to undertake a duathlon during her summer holidays! It would be a big day out even for an adult!

She would also be delighted if you could answer her short, anonymous questionnaire that she has designed herself, to understand how far people would go to help save the environment: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/58QC5PQ
