Local mum, Stacey Munro, pulled the Woodside Community together to create the perfect prom night for Woodside School’s primary 7’s.
Stacey, alongside a few other parents, felt that their youngsters deserved a proper prom, so they decided to fundraise to make it happen!
Everyone set to work, the kids collected recycling, exchanging it for cash at the machine in Sainsbury’s, they organised a raffle at the Christmas fair and parents held an Annie Moon night.
“The kids are so excited, like, this is the first Primary to have a proper prom, and all the kids are so excited, that they’re getting to go. They’re going to Pittodrie, and a lot of kids don’t get to go on trips like this, so it does mean a lot to them, they’re all speaking about it, so it will be good.
We’ve actually raised more than we set out too, so the money that’s left over will go towards, the 2 primary 7 classes, so the money will get split between their activity’s week in June.”
Residents of Fullerton Court rolled their sleeves up and got to work too, hosting a prize bingo in aid of the event. The bingo was a success with residents and some of the school kids having a great time, and a total of £416 was raised by the Fullerton Court lot.
