Loads of fun at Dunbeg

Beat the goalie, the human fruit machine and toss the wellie were just some of the games that featured at this year’s Dunbeg Primary fun day.

The event is one of the school’s main fundraisers, and this year was no different. It generated more than £1,700.

Marny McCulloch, head teacher of Dunbeg Primary, said: ‘The Dunbeg Primary fun day was a great success, despite the challenges of the weather.

‘The organisiation and support of the fundraising committee was exceptional, and I’d like to thank Angela Beard and her team for gathering so many prizes, organising a delicious cafe and putting together so many imaginative and fun activities.

‘The human fruit machine was hysterical!

‘The new activity this session was an obstacle course around the school grounds and, incorporating the cycle path, made even more exciting by access to our woodland.

‘The rope bridge and slime crawl were two of the most popular obstacles enjoyed by the children, who looked terrible but smelled great after the former.

‘We raised an astonishing £1,700 on Saturday, thanks to supporters, parents and the generous donations of local businesses. Over the next few months parents, children and staff will agree how to spend it for the benefit of the children.’

Face painting is always popular with the children.

Goalkeeper Liam Reynolds makes a great save.

The ‘human fruit machine’ was an excellent idea.
