On Wednesday 18th September, Hart Memorial PS and Presentation PS hosted a coffee morning to raise money for Macmillan. This was done during Good Relations Week, which runs from the 16th September to 22nd September. It was the first event for both schools as part of the Shared Education programme for this academic year. It was held in the Millennium Court in Portadown. Parents, friends, governors and Principals from both schools came to this wonderful event as well as people and businesses from the local area. Barclays Bank and Healthy Kidz staff came to show their support, which was great. A huge thanks to Portadown Credit Union for their very generous donation to Macmillan. A lovely sense of community was felt throughout the morning.
A wide variety of sweet treats were available for people to enjoy as well as tea, coffee and juice.
Both schools would like to thank the following for their help and support in order to make the coffee morning such a wonderful success -
- Rhiannon’s Cake and Bakes for providing the most amazing and super tasty traybakes and cupcakes!
- Kitchen Bakes, Portadown for the great selection of traybakes, they were thoroughly enjoyed.
- Asda, Portadown for the biscuits and gluten free treats.
- P & G, Portadown for the tea, coffee, milk and sugar.
