We got some EXCELLENT news today at our last assembly of the term! We had some special visitors who came along to present us with a cheque for the school. Mrs Harkness, Mrs Fowlie and Miss Cordiner came along to represent the 'Strichen Walk Stars' team who raised funds for the school and the Kilt Walk appeal by taking part in a sponsored walk. Some of the team walked 8 miles while five of the team completed a TWENTY SIX mile walk!
They raised a total of £2,122.30 and the team were able to split the amount between the charities being supported by the Klt Walk organisers and Strichen School. So, we were presented with a cheque for £1061.15!
On behalf of the school we would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who took part and helped raise such a great amount for the Kilt Walk and for the school. The money is a great bonus and we will need to think hard about using it to buy something special for the school.
