Greetings Every One
On Monday we welcomed Jack and his family to
our Stirling School Community.
We are all looking forward to our trip next week.
The students have made a list of what they will
need to bring with them, see below. Please
remember that they will need a packed lunch on
Monday. As the van is not running on Monday
morning we have contacted the families affected
to organise other transport arrangements. If you
have a problem getting your child/children to
school by 8.20am on Monday please text me or
Chantel over the weekend. We will be back in
Stirling by 3 or thereabouts on Tuesday and the
children will be delivered home unless you have told
us otherwise.
Positive prize this week went to Troy and
Lucian. Well done for great behaviour.
Regards
Mary, Chantel and Trudie

We continue to run with Bailey as she prepares

The new, lighter version of Miss Lamb.
Last weekend Miss Lamb had 40.64 cm cut off
her hair . She has been growing her hair for the
past year to get it to the correct length so she
could donate it to Freedom Wigs.
