AGM of Dunbar Primary Parent Council is next Monday (19 August) in the John Muir Library at 7pm. Don’t worry about being stuck in a boring meeting for hours, pop in to find out more about the school and support it and share your views. All welcome.

Helen Schoen, chair of Parent Council

Just a reminder that the last meeting of Dunbar Primary School Parent Council for the school year takes place on Monday. 7pm onwards in the John Muir school library. Do try and make it if you can. (I can’t drink all that bubbly on my own)

Expansion of Dunbar, plans for more new homes and how this will impact on Dunbar Primary will be discussed at the next primary school parent council meeting. Does this issue matter to you?

We meet Tues may 14 at John Muir campus library at 7pm. All those with children at Dunbar Primary are welcome.

Dunbar Primary School Summer Fair takes place on 25th May 2019 at the John Muir Campus.

Come and join us for the biggest fundraiser in the school calendar!

Lots of fundraising stalls, homebaking, teas/coffees, tombola, BBQ, games and activities, bric-a-brac, dance and music demonstrations.

Free entry. All monies raised go towards supporting pupils at Dunbar Primary School.

It is a couple of weeks to go to the school fair. Last year was a fab day for all raising thousands for the school. Please pitch in and help the day go smoothly.

I already know I will need volunteers for the following between 1pm and 4pm. Sign-up for an hour if you can, or more if you feel able. Give me a shout  -email helenschoen@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks everyone who made Easter Monday fun possible. Fabulous team of volunteers, great support from local businesses, including BeGreen who helped fund the archery and Dunbar Fire Service who did a brilliant job helping with the egg drop survivor challenge. Thanks too to Muddy Buddies for their brilliant contribution and all those who came and joined in. Lovely, too, to have the Lauderdale Park cafe in action. There’s a couple of small expenses to take care of but it looks like we took more than £700. Great news for Dunbar Primary.

Prize winners will be notified. Continue reading Easter Monday Fun raised more than £700, thanks to everyone who made it possible →
