Girls' Football Tournament
Wed 03 Dec 2014Today, two teams of girls travelled to Lisburn Leisureplex to compete in an IFA girls' football tournament. None of the girls had played in a competitive match before so this was a new experience for everyone! There were some tough opponents as several of the teams were made up of girls who regularly play for club sides. However, the Cairnshill girls worked really hard and definitely improved as the tournament progressed. One of our teams came second in their group and reached the semi-final of the tournament. Unfortunately they were defeated by Harmony Hill PS but the girls should be very proud of their achievement. Most importantly everyone enjoyed the experience and the girls are hoping for an opportunity to compete against other schools in the future!

Christmas Fair
Mon 01 Dec 2014Our annual Christmas Fair will be held on Saturday, 6th December at 1pm. As usual there will be lots going on and we hope to see lots of you there. This week, preparations will be taking place in school and we'd be delighted to receive your donations for our various stalls. Books, CDs, DVDs, toys, toiletries, groceries and household items can all be sent into school on any day this week. We also ask each child to donate a packet of sweets or bar of chocolate for the Sweet Stall. Many thanks to those who have volunteered to bake for the Cake Stall or afternoon teas; these items should be brought to the Staffroom on Friday morning.
During this week, pupils can buy tickets for the 'Soft Toy' or 'Tablet' raffle - £1. We've also been given a lovely teddy and for only 50p (1 guess) or £1 (3 guesses), children can guess his name. Hopefully he'll be off to a new home on Saturday!
No doubt there'll be a few reminders sent home this week regarding arrangements for the fair - many thanks for your support! It's events like this which help us to provide additional resources for our pupils and make our school an even better place.
