A HUGE thank you to all the parents and friends of Kilchuimen who have sponsored the children as part of the British Heart Foundation big skip. The money is still coming in and we don't have a final total but people have been very generous. 20% of money raised will go towards school funds.

We raised £38 for Children in Need as part of our dress down day today. Every little helps.

Next week we shall be having another dress down day on Friday and the money will be used to raise money for Christmas activities.

On Wednesday we had a super afternoon of music when Mhairead Green and Anna Massie played the accordion, small pipes, guitar, banjo and fiddle to us. Everyone loved singing the song, Sam the Skull. We also learned about jigs, strathspeys and reels and how to decide which tune was which.

All the children have been working hard on their safety posters so we will be finding out soon who will win a prize.

Pr 123 have begun work on their nativity this week, Busy Busy Bethlehem, Mrs Walker thinks that they have nearly learned the piece already! Brilliant work P 123.

The singing for the Pantomine has really been improving it's sounding fantastic, we know lots of the words as well. Actors have been learning their lines and will be without the script soon!

The nurse was in school on Monday and did the P1 health checks.

The nursery have a mini hospital set up and there are a few sick teddies and dolls.

You will also be pleased to hear that the missing teddy from last week was found. He had a huge adventure. The children wrote about the teddy's adventure, that teddy had had a busy time!

We would like to invite all our parents and friends to come to the Advent Service in the church on Friday at 9.30, this is nice way to start off the Advent season. We hope to see you there.

Have a lovely weekend.
