Thank you to everyone who helped collect the green Asda tokens for our school. Although we didn't win the top prize of £500, we still managed to claim the runner up prize of £200. Many thanks to everyone and also to the staff at our local Asda store, particularly Colleen Heaney, who delivered the cheque! A great gift to receive.

On Friday 5th April, we held a 'School Marathon Relay' on our school grounds. All pupils participated brilliantly in what was a fantastic fundraiser for the school and 'fun-tastic' day for all concerned. Every pupil from the Reception class to P7 took part and completed between 100 and 1000 metres to help in completing the marathon distance of 26.2 miles (or 42,195 metres) in 2 hours and 44 minutes. Lots of teachers and parents even joined in with the running too, before the youngest and eldest child in the school completed the final lap, being loudly cheered home by all the other tired, but happy pupils and staff.

We would like to say a massive thank you to everyone involved, but especially the children and their families for raising over £2,500 in sponsor money for the school funds. An amazing amount of money, which far surpassed our wildest expectations. Well done to one and all.

Photographs of the event will be posted in the coming days.
