Changes to The Hub Webshop

A message to explain the recent changes to our webshop from Buy.at

We’re really excited to announce the launch of the Spend and Raise eStores. Now you can raise even more funds for your charity, school, sports club or other not-for-profit organisation. Previously named buy.at Webshops, this service has been running for nearly 10 years, so you can feel confident that we know what we’re doing – we’ve helped over 12,000 not for profit organisations to date. The new key benefits of Spend and Raise are:

1) 6x more retailers than the previous site, giving you and your Supporters access to nearly 1,000 retailers.

2) Search for a product by price, retailer, product brand, popularity and category, so that you find exactly what you’re looking for without having to visit lots of retailers sites.

3) Supporters can create their own profile so that they can check their transactions through the site, and see their purchases on the list of ‘Latest Fundraisers.’ They can also sign up and log in with their Facebook account.

4) There’s a ‘Today’s offers’ area where you can find all the latest deals to save money.

Lost Landscapes Art Project

Since March the Senior Class, along with some buddies from P6 and P7, has been working alongside artist in residence, Juliana Capes.  During six sessions with Juliana we worked hard to produce the wonderful installation which is now on display in the front window at The Peter Potter Gallery in Haddington.

We worked with lots of different materials, clay, feathers, leaves, willow, soil, sand and sugar!  We made our own paper and decorated cellophane.

You can see the process we worked through here.

The exhitbition runs until Saturday, 4th June.  We’re very proud of our work so please take a look if you’re in Haddington and tell us what you think!
