We are delighted to announce once again that the pupils and families of Strichen School have excelled themselves when it comes to supporting charities! On Friday 26th September we held our SEVENTH Macmillan 'World's Biggest Coffee Morning' and to date we have raised £1186.
The event was organised by the staff and pupils of Pr 4/5, Pr 5/6 and Pr 6/7. They worked together to plan out the morning event and devised a range of activites and tasks for the visitors to work on as well as running a raffle, baking for the coffee mornig and running all the different activities.
This even has grown over the years and is now firmly established on the schol calendar. The staff and pupils can be very proud of their achievements and we are sure they can be assured that the money they raised will be put to very good use by The Macmillan Cancer Support Charity to further their work.
We also need to thank the volunteers who came in to help on the mornng - parents and other people from the community assisted the children and were erqually responsible for ensuring the success of the event.
And finally we need to thank everyone who came along and supported the event. We had well over 100 people attend the event and they enjoyed going round the activities and stalls and enjoyed a cuppa with a very extensive array of home bakes and cakes! Without their generous donations we would not have been able to make such a great amount!
Well done to everyone!
