Dreghorn Primary Parent Council Funding Inclusive Whole School Trip

No comments DreghornPrimaryPC Irvine

<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 style="margin-bottom:11px"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:107%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Our football team plays a crucial role in promoting health, wellbeing and social inclusion.&nbsp; It&rsquo;s a critical age for children to begin experimenting with alcohol and smoking but&nbsp;having a focus with our team helps to support the boys make positive decisions. We have a range of families in our team, some from deprived areas and a family from Ukraine. Being a part of our team has helped reduce social barriers for these boys and ensure they have a sense of belonging whilst also supporting one of the boys learn to speak English.&nbsp; They are also learning to work positively as part of a team and respect which they take into their daily lives at school and at home with their families.&nbsp; We promote healthy choices as a team and as a result of this many of the boys have joined the gym and attend regularly to keep improving their fitness levels and socialise with one another.</span></span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:11px"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:107%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Our dedicated coaches volunteer a large amount of time to the team for training, matches and all the organising&nbsp;that goes on in the background.</span></span></span></p>

Barnardo's Christmas Outing

No comments Fiona Irvine

<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>
