Our New Wet Weather Gear


The new wet weather gear purchased from the proceeds of the Ugly Bug Ball has arrived in school. The children are really excited at the thought of donning their new kit and exploring outside. . A big thank you to all who contributed to raising the funds to purchase these. Key Stage 2 teachers have decided to buy a set of mini video cameras so that the children can use them to record their work and put them on their blogs.

What happened at Gelli Primary School on Red Nose Day .. Doing something funny for money

Friday the 13th is normally an unlucky day, but at Gelli Primary School all the staff and children "Did something funny for money"

Most of the children and staff turned up in their pyjamas and in the process raised £214.40 for Comic Relief. Year 6 decided that they wanted to do a sponsored car clean, so supervised by Mrs. Date and Mr. Evans they got the vacuum cleaners, glass spary and dusters out and got rid of all the grit, stones, stale pasties and crumbs from the inside of their cars. They paid £3 for the privilige, and by the state of some of the cars they should have paid much more. Gelli Primary children have a partner school in Mbale, Africa and in July participated in a sponsored walk with Kath and Phil Rickards from the Pont Partnership to raise money for our partner school.
