CHRISTMAS COMES TO JOHN GRAY CENTRE!
Published: Wed 19 Dec 2012

Escape the madness of Christmas shopping and bring your family to experience a host of fun Christmas activities at the John Gray Centre, Lodge Street, Haddington. On Saturday, we'll have Santa outside greeting visitors, decorations you can make yourselves and take home, live Christmas music, mince pies, plus quizzes, games and plenty of festive cheer! Upstairs in the Archive, they’ll have a display of historical documents too. Then on Sunday, you’ll still be able to make some Christmas decorations, take part in a quiz, and it’ll also be your last chance to take part in our 12 days of Christmas competition.

Christmas Activity Times are:

10am-3pm, Saturday 22nd December

1pm-3pm, Sunday 23rd December

The John Gray Centre will close at 5pm on 24th December and reopen at 9.30 on 3rd January.

John Gray Centre would like to wish all their visitors a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

CARRY THE CARD
Published: Wed 12 Dec 2012

To bring the school library in-line with East Lothian Libraries policy, from the 8th of January 2013 pupils must have their Young Scot entitlement card to borrow and reserve library materials.

By making the card part of a pupil’s everyday equipment they will be able to request resources to support studies and class projects from the online library catalogue; they will be secure in the knowledge that no other pupil can give their name and class to get books out on their record. They will have access while in school, at home and at local branch libraries to online resources to assist with research for class projects.

Pupils who currently have lost their card, or their card is damaged can collect an application form from Mr Plain in the school library for a new card.
