22 Jan 2018Ceilidh Success
What an amazing ceilidh night, well done to everyone involved for all your time and effort, it was fantastic!
The hall and table decorations looked just wonderful and the cocktail bar was a great idea; such a refreshing change for all us frequent flyers : )
The raffle and auction prizes were astounding and so was our MC and all her assistants throughout the evening, knock out! A huge thank you to everyone who provided raffle and/or auctions prizes, most generous of you.
Well done to Andy Holmes who now has a job for life addressing the Duchal haggis - so entertaining! Young Rory Campbell did a sterling job of playing for us as we arrived and again when he piped-in the haggis with Cook Roz.
Roz Teasedale fed us extremely well yet again, what more could one ask for - we didn't even need to leave our seats!
Fiona, please thank Andy very much for providing the 'Artisan' cocktails, bar and staff, most thoughtful of him and really much appreciated (..and enjoyed!).
Duchal is very lucky to have such an active and enthusiastic Committee and nursery friends on-board. Read article -
15 Nov 2017Paper Recycling Collection Every Friday
Do you have lots of paper to recycle each week? Rather than putting it in your blue bin, please bring it down to Duchal.
Every Friday we have a collection of paper by a local company (owned by ex Duchal parents) who use it for packaging, and then give us a donation.
So please help us in our fundraising effort and bring your paper to the nursery. Please encourage your friends, family and local businesses to support us too.
As well as newspapers and general paper, glossy magazines and thin cardboard such as cereal boxes are also great, but NOT thick card or big mail order magazines/telephone directories as they don't go straight in to the shredder - many thanks. Read article -
