Charity Fundraiser – Dress Down/Dress Up Day next Friday 7th October
Let us introduce ourselves, we are Mae Anderson (P5), Beth Mutch (P6/5) and Cerys Milne (P6/5).
At the end of last school year we wanted to plan a fundraiser in school to raise money for Clan (Cancer charity) and Absafe (safety charity for children). With the support of the school, we would now like to share with you our fundraising plan which will be held on Friday 7th October.
We are holding a ‘Dress as you please/Dress as a superhero day’ and we would ask your child to support our charities by bringing in a small donation on the day.
One boy and one girl from each class will be awarded house points for the most unique/interesting costume.
We will also be holding the following raffles starting Monday 3rd October and closing on Thursday 6th October;
‘Guess the Teddy Birthday’ – priced at 50p per guess or £1 for 3 guesses.
‘Guess the number of Chocolates in the jar’ – prices at 50p per guess of £1 for 3 guesses.
At the end of the week, on Friday afternoon, we will be holding a special assembly for classes so that we can find out more about the work of Absafe, present our donations and we will announce the house points and prize winners.
We hope that you can support our fundraising day.
Many Thanks!
Yours Sincerely,
Mae Anderson, Beth Mutch, Cerys Milne

Early Learning and Childcare Expansion Consultation – Survey Monkey Questionnaire
Aberdeen City Council is carrying out a statutory consultation exercise linked to the Scottish Government’s programme for the expansion of early learning and childcare. The Government’s intention is to expand the offer of funded early learning and childcare to 1140 hours per annum for some two year olds and all three and four year olds, whose parents want such a service by 2020.
It is important that we gather information from parents, carers and potential future parents regarding how best services could be provided. A series of consultation events have been organised to consider the Scottish Government’s programme of expansion of early learning and childcare entitlement. A survey monkey questionnaire has also been launched to gather as many views as possible.
We have undertaken a strategic review of existing services and options related to the delivery of expanded provision have been identified. We would be extremely grateful if you complete the survey monkey questionnaire by clicking on the link below and give us your views on how best expanded services might be delivered in your area.

The survey will be open for 6 weeks until Friday 28th October 2016. Please ensure you only complete one survey and thank you very much for taking the time to complete this questionnaire.
