  Thu 27 Nov 2014
  A very excited group of children from Panther Class set of from school last Thursday on a mission. They had recieved the call from Virgin Money to challenge them to run a stall at The Grainger Market. They planned very carefully and ensured that their range of Christmas stock was varied and priced for profit but at a realistic price point. Staff, children and parents had a great time. The children were superb sales people, polite, patient and well informed. They were proactive in seeking customers and informing them articulately about the project and their products. It was a tremendous success. A big Balliol Congratualtions to the children and the staff led by Mr Longstaff who supported them. A huge Balliol Thank You to the family members who werre incredibly supportive, both in helping the children make and design products and by going along to The Grainger Market to show your interest and enthusiasm for their project.

They saw early examples of hydro-electric power, the earliest working light bulb and a very early example of a dish washer. As always, the children's enthusiasm and excellent manners were noticed by staff. Brillian Balliol Ambassadors

• Pumas Adventure to Whitehouse Farm

  Thu 18 Sep 2014
  Pumas had a fantastic day out at Whitehouse farm. They had a wonderful guide who taught them all about the habitat and diet of lots of different creatures. Some of the children (and parents) were very brave and handled snakes and spiders. Mrs Allan was very proud of their enthusiastic, enquiring approach to everything and of course their excellent manners. Well done Pumas - Balliol Ambassadors one and all!
