Friends of Tarradale Fundraiser

tarradaleblog — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 19:34:19 +0000

Our fundraiser this Christmas is to create 12 page calendars featuring the children in photograph. Along with the children’s photos we are offering the opportunity for local business to advertise on a month of the calendar for a donation towards printing costs. The more donations we have the greater the profit we can make for the school. This would also offer effective advertising for small local businesses.

We are looking for around £40 donation per entry. If any parents, friends or relatives would like the opportunity to advertise please contact the numbers below to organise by Thursday 12th November.

Thank you very much for your continued support

Reading Challenge

tarradaleblog — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 19:23:53 +0000

As part of the reading challenge in P4, P5, P5/6, pupils contribute a short book review to the school blog. This is Katie’s book review on The Worry Website by Jacqueline Wilson.
This book is by Jacqueline Wilson and is called The Worry Website. The story is all about ‘the worry webiste’ where people type in their worries and the webiste gives them ideas of how to sort their problems. Mr Speed sets up the website for his class and the story tells us about his pupils worries and what might help them. I found this book quite good and I wwould give this book 8 out of 10.
