The recent Quiz Night was a great success and raised £200! Many thanks to the organisers, Paul and Sally Weller, to The Covenanters, the Post Office and Boath House (who all donated prizes for the raffle) and to everyone who came along and supported the event.
We had planned to run a jumble sale and film night in the next couple of weeks. These have both been postponed. Sadly we have been unable to obtain the film rights to The Sound of Music, which was the planned sing-a-long show for 6th March. We hope to re-book the community centre for a film night later in the year.
Auldearn Primary School is a non-denominational school which accepts Nursery (3 and 4 year olds) to P7 pupils of either sex, from families living in, or around, the village of Auldearn which is some two miles from the town of Nairn.
Wednesday 1st July – End of Term Potted Sports and Family Ceilidh
We will be holding the annual Potted Sports event on Wednesday July 1st from 6-8pm. All children are invited and parents too as we need plenty of helpers at all the activity posts. Children move round in their classes to try a variety of fun sports, such as golf, cricket, parachute silk games, and an obstacle course. More details to follow.
NEW!!!! Following the Potted Sports there will be a Family Ceilidh on the playing field from 8pm-10pm. Further details nearer the time, but please put the date in your diaries.
Staff retirement
The end of term also marks the retirement of two special members of staff. Mrs Nesbitt and Mr McMordie will both be retiring this summer after many years service at the school; they will both be greatly missed. If you would like to make a contribution towards a leaving gift for either or both, please send this into school in separate marked envelopes. Thank you.
New Head Teacher
Following interviews, we are delighted to announce that a new Head has been appointed at Auldearn. Angela Cryans is joining us from her current role as Depute Head at Inshes School in Inverness. She will start in Auldearn before the end of term to enable a handover with Mrs Nesbitt.
