Our Plans For This Year

 

 

Food Bank

Our Community Group have set up a Food Bank with all donations being delivered to Cyrenians for distribution within Aberdeen.  This has helped us with the values of Respect and Fairness.

The food bank has been very popular and our school community have been very generous.

Thank you to everyone who has helped.

 

 

The Community Group have been working towards a variety of TARGETS this year. Our aim is to help children create a sense of belonging within their community helping them to feel Healthy, Included, Respected and Responsible within their school. We agreed our TARGETS with Hazel The Squirrel our school mascot.

• Improve our school grounds creating a values garden

• Organise and promote a Family Festive event in partnership with our Parent Council
