FAB Spring Disco – Hat Party update

Nearly £500 (after expenses) was raised at our Spring disco last Friday!!  Well done and thank you!  Most importantly, many of the children told us how much fun they had at the disco – dancing with their friends on the dance floor, the lucky dips, the cakes and just be free and run about in a safe environment, creating many happy memories.  We hope you enjoy these photos!

We all appreciated all the effort everyone put into decorating and wearing a hat on the night too – the children and adults!  Well done to the best hat winners too!

We are taking this opportunity to wish you a happy Easter break, enjoy Eid for those celebrating and a reminder that Sunday run and train together is not on Easter Sunday but will be back on Sunday 7^th April at 10:30am.  Happy holidays, everyone!

Please see the attached flyer for information and advice on some free or low cost activities and supports for families over the Easter Break.

We hope you find it useful!

P6 pupils Ege Ozener, Bea Skinner, Amar Singh and Pablo von Pezold took part in the annual P6 Euroquiz event this week. Lots of Edinburgh schools took part in the quiz. They have worked really hard in preparing for the quiz to learn all about European flags, capitals, language, landmarks and much more! There were some tricky questions in the quiz, but our team did well, and tried their best. Well done team!

Sunday Pilrig Park Train and Run together

Fun run 2024 sessions have started at Pilrig Park on Sunday!!  Some familiar faces and also great to see some new P1s joining our session.  These sessions offer a chance to be active outdoors, in a non competitive environment – you can run, jog or walk.  Well done everyone for joining our first session and hope you all had fun at the park after.  

If your child(ren) have already signed up to Edinburgh Marathon Festival (EMF) races, please drop the parent council a line.  In 2018, we had 118 #broughtonRunners taking part in EMF, can we beat this number in 2024?  

See you all next Sunday!!  #goBroughton!
