Bingo night raises £2300
The bingo night run by the Parent Council last Friday was a huge success, raising £2300 for the school! Over 100 folk packed the school hall for a fun night of bingo, raffle and supper. With the absence of the winter fair this year the bingo was the main Parent Council fundraiser. The money will go towards improvements to the playground and the school library upgrade.
The Parent Council thanks all those who came along on the night, the parents who helped with supper and prizes, local businesses for donating generous prizes and staff at the school for all their help.

P7 Children in Need
We are very proud of our P7 class who led the funding raising for Children in Need this year. They undertook an enterprise project which resulted in fantastic jewellery and keyrings and they led a bake sale, bric a brac sale, face painting, beat the goalie and a book sale.
The grand total for SPS this year was £1333.34. Which is the most we have ever raised. A fantastic amount. P7 would like to thank all the children and parents for all their donations. They would also like to thank all the SPS staff for all their support.
Well done to the whole school community, what a fabulous achievement!
