Dear Parents and Carers
What a bizarre weekend of weather with the snow leaving as quickly as it arrived! Please do make sure your child comes to school with a suitable jacket (named) as they will spend time outdoors. Any items of lost property, without a name, can be found under the shelter in the front playground. Named items will be returned to children.
Recycled uniform items
As part of their Rainbow School learning about sustainability a group of P5s will run a recycled uniform stall from 11.45am on Fri 29th Nov in the front playground. Cash donations for any items that you can use are much appreciated. If you have any items of good quality, no longer needed school uniform, please hand into the school office.
Ethical and FairTrade stall
This year all of our P7 learners are part of leadership groups taking forward the seven commitments of Rainbow School – Equalities and Diversity, Outdoor Learning, Sustainability, Leaders of Learning, Global Citizens, Health & Wellbeing and Trinity Together.
On Friday 6th December from 11.40am our Global Citizens group will be running their first Ethical and FairTrade stall selling Christmas decorations to parents and carers. Please look out for more information.
Jam Jars
Please support the TPSA by filling a jam jar with items such as sweets, small toys, hair accessories etc and handing into school before Thursday. All of the jars will be sold at the light switch on event.
Christmas at Trinity
Many thanks to the TPSA who have, once again, provided the money to cover the costs for all in school events.
Thursday Nov 28th sees the start of Christmas at Trinity. Christmas clothing is encouraged! All donations of no longer needed items are very much appreciated – particularly larger sizes.
The morning will see all our learners work together in their houses to decorate banners and display boards. Parents and carers able to pop along to lend a hand are very welcome.
6.15pm : Join us in the front playground for our Christmas light switch on.
