Parents’ party boosts bike fund

Sweet treatsCeanna 031017greenburn_02 Parents of Greenburn Primary pupils dug deep at the weekend to help the school raise funds for a specialised bike.

The parent council held a table top sale, car wash and Alice in Wonderland-themed cafe at the Calderwood school on Saturday and collected more than £500.

The cash will be put towards a fund for a £4500 bike for children with additional support needs and mobility issues, including wheelchair users.

Head teacher Helen Nicol praised the group for all their efforts and said: “We had a great day. The kids really enjoyed it.

“A big thank you to organisers Susanne Bogan, Deborah Boyce and Claire Breingan for all their hard work. They are super.”

Greenburn are planning to host more events in the new year to add to their fundraising pot. Fabulous fundraiser 031017greenburn_04 Car wash capers 031017greenburn_05 031017greenburn_01
