Celebrating Our Wonderful Volunteers!

Today, we came together as a school community to celebrate and show our heartfelt gratitude to some of our most valued supporters—our fantastic volunteers from Intergen and our much-loved Grani Pat.

Throughout the year, Mrs Ewan and Mrs Macdonald from Intergen have dedicated their time each week to support our pupils with reading. Their encouragement, patience and genuine love of books have made a lasting impact on the confidence and progress of so many of our children. Meanwhile, Grani Pat has brought our garden to life – literally! Through her hands-on gardening sessions, she has helped students develop a love for the outdoors, taught them how to grow their own food, and brought excitement and wonder to our school garden.

To say thank you, our Key Stage 1 students hosted a lively and joyful celebration in their honour. The children presented our wonderful volunteers with flowers, chocolates and beautifully signed cards to show just how much their kindness and commitment have meant to us all.

It was a truly special moment to reflect on the positive influence these incredible ladies have had on our school. Their time, energy, and warmth are appreciated more than words can say.

From everyone at Acre Hall – thank you Mrs Ewan, Mrs Macdonald, and Grani Pat – you have made a great difference, and we are so lucky to have you as part of our school family.
