<p>Barnardo&#39;s works with young people across North Ayrshire in a variety of services. We would like to take the young people to a Pantomime this Christmas as their Christmas activity. We did this last year with non-recurring funding so this year we are looking for support as the young people that attended last year had such a good time, they got out the house, socialised and made new friends, and had a laugh. We will take the young people for dinner before the Panto and make them up a snack bag for the show. This activity will help young people with their mential health and wellbeing and social isolation. Dates for this years Pantomime are from 1st December to 7th January.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif">Dreghorn Primary Parent Council(PC) would like to provide a trip for the whole school, this would be the first trip for years. &nbsp;Pupils and Parents have expressed their desire for a whole school trip but have alluded to the challenge posed by the current cost of living crisis.&nbsp; Not having a whole school trip is adversely effecting children of all ages and we want to ensure that finance is not a barrier. The PC are applying for funding to cover the cost for every child. We all have great memories of trips, we would like that for this generation. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif">Outdoor learning is so important to make connections between school and the real world &ndash; bringing topics alive. The extensive benefits for health and wellbeing are also well documented.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif">One pupil said &quot; I enjoy trips, they are very educational because you are in a new place, learning new things that you would never be able to see in school. Another pupil told us &quot; You get out all day to see things and its fun. I like a trip&nbsp;because you get to be with all your friends from the other classes and it can be good learning.</span></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>With the success of our school&#39;s program&nbsp;and Easter&nbsp;and Sumner camps we now&nbsp;have more kids and families using our facilities. To improve the area and make it easier for disabled and small kids in prams we are looking to extend a pathway into the main car park area and make ramp access into our dressing rooms and toilet area.</p>

<p>Castlepark Primary School Parent Council are applying for funding to support the running of the schools&nbsp;Breakfast Club.</p>

<p>To support the children&#39;s mental health and well-being we are looking to purchase outdoor equipment to encourage outdoor play. This will have a positive impact physically and mentally for the children and will allow a more fun approach to learning.</p> <p>We would also like to put &pound;150 towards to cost of free school discos for all the children to attend and enjoy.</p>
