Thank you to the Parent Council for organising the Christmas Fayre on Friday 29 November. It was a lovely night and there was a real warm, Christmasy atmosphere. There were many local traders selling beautiful gifts and it was great to see so many families coming along and supporting this fantastic event.

We had a pyjama day today to raise money for BBC's Children In Need appeal. Thank you to everyone who donated to this worthwhile appeal. We raised £413.00! It was great fun.

We had the pleasure of meeting Mr Alf Downton today who is 100 years old! He spoke to the children about his experience of war and of his life. The children sang a rememberance day song and asked Mr Downton some interesting questions. Matteo Bell, Ben Murray, Eleyese Ross, Ben McQuillan (Reading Rhys Sutherland's poem in his absence) and Kerr Darling from P7b read to the school and Mr Downton the war poems they had written. The children also presented Mr Downton with a book of all of the rememberance day poems written by P7 as a token of gratitude.

The Eastern Primary Choir will be singing at the Broughty Ferry light switch on. This is on Thursday 21 November at 6.30pm. More information will follow.

Our Parent Council are holding an Arts and Crafts Evening on Friday 29 November 6.30pm - 8.30pm. Tickets can be ordered in advance using the letter that was sent home with your child.

P6a prepared a fantastic assembly about life in Victorian times.  They used song, drama and wonderful characterisation

 to share their learning with everyone.  Many thanks to the family and friends who came along to share the event with us.

We are having a pyjama day on Wednesday 13 November to raise money for BBC's Children in Need. The children can bring along a donation of £1.00 and wear pyjamas.

All of the children who came along to the Fancy Dress Disco had a great time dancing their socks off.  Thank you to the Parent Council for organising this event. It was lovely to see the children in their fancy dress costumes.

Thank you to everyone who brought in items and backpacks for Mary's Meals. It was great that so many of you were able to support this worthwhile cause.

We are collecting items for Mary's Meal's Backpack project during this time of Harvest. This is a very worthwhile cause which helps children in Malawi. All donations will be greatly appreciated. Although we would like as many donations as possible by Monday 22 October we will be able to continue to receive donations the week after this date too.  Thank you in advance to everyone who can help.
