CALLING NEW AND PRESENT MEMBERS
NEWINGTON SCHOOL PARENT COUNCIL & FUNDRAISING COMMITTEE : AGM
This year the Newington School Forum and the Fundraising Committee will hold a Meeting on Wednesday, 10th September at 6.00pm. All parents and staff are cordially invited to attend.
The evening will be a relaxed evening with the opportunity for everyone to find out a little more about the role of these committees within the school and enjoy coffee and a chat.
The Forum allows parents to have a voice in School matters and the Fundraising Committee organises two or three fundraising events over the year. The committees usually hold one short joint meeting each term. Meetings are informal and friendly and the committees would welcome new members.
If you would like to find out more about these committees please come and join us in the school dinner hall and enjoy a coffee. You will be under no obligation to join the committees but it may give you an insight to the work they do.
We are so pleased to have welcomed some new members on Tuesday evening and we look forward to seeing more of you.
Thank you to all parents and family members that joined us last night for our Primary One information evening. I would be extremely grateful if as many of you that attended this night could fill out the survey below by clicking on the link. This will help us with future events.

Your child may also need P.E kit for development activities on a Friday afternoon so it may be worth organising kit for this day too.
It is vital that your child brings appropriate P.E kit on these days. We do have some extra kit but not a lot. As per council policy and for health and safety reasons, can we ask that no jewellery be worn on these days. If you are unable to take out your child's earrings on their P.E day, then tape (micro-tape) should be used. It is also advisable that older children bring in a roll on so that they can apply after P.E.
All parents have been sent an important email to the email address we have on file from care plan / enrolment forms. Please check that you have received this by checking spam and junk folders too.
If you have not received the email please let Mrs Gallagher know and provide an alternative email address.
The Forum and Fundraising Group are holding a raffle at the Afternoon Tea at The Corner House, Annan on Saturday 20th September.
Any donation for the raffle can be handed in at the school office.
Many thanks,
