The weather was kind this year, allowing for another fantastic Sports Day at West Barns. A huge thank you to all that came along to cheer the pupils’ on.  The staff for making it run like clockwork and everyone who helped in any way.  As always, there was some fantastic baking to enjoy with a cuppa. The sale of refreshments raised £150 which will go the benefit of the children.  A great day to be part of West Barns Primary School.

A big thank you for coming along to the Soup Lunch following the Easter Assembly. There were some tasty soups and delicious home baking to enjoy along with a cuppa.  The children enjoyed the lucky dip and the children’s raffle and there was a fantastic luxury hamper too.  All this contributed to a fantastic £300 being raised, so many thanks again.

Please come and join us for some hearty homemade soup and crusty bread or a cuppa and a cake straight after the Easter assembly on Friday 22nd March at 12pm.  There will also be an Easter Bonnet / Baseball Cap Competion, a raffle for a luxury hamper and a fun filled Easter lucky dip.

Just to remind you that the Christmas Fayre is next Saturday at 10am – 12 noon.  Please come along and enjoy some festive fun.  There are some fantastic raffle prizes  to be won (see below).  West Barns Parent Council would like to thank everybody who has donated towards the raffle:

I think everyone will agree that the Halloween party on Thursday night was an outstanding success.  It was great to see so many pupils there enjoying all the fun & games and spooky snacks.  There were some fantastic costumes and amazing pumpkins.  As always, parents and staff worked hard to make the night such a success and nearly £200 was raised towards school funds.  A special note of thanks to Lorna Forsyth and George Campbell, whose skills made the night!
