Come and celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day with Afternoon Tea at Struan School on Saturday 10th May from 2.30pm.

We are looking for helpers and bakers.

If anyone in the Struan community area would like to attend but has no transportation, please let me know.

If anyone has photos/memorabilia etc from then, we would appreciate it if we could use them on the day.

Events at the school on Thursday, Saturday & Monday

Craft Night will be on as usual on Thursday 6th March from 7pm to 9pm, all are welcome.

Coffee in the Classroom will be on Saturday 8th March from 10:30am to 12:30pm. Your supervisors will be Ali and Marie, all are welcome. Please note this will be the last one of these for the time being.

Kaly Group will be holding a Pre-Application Event on Monday 10th from 5pm to 8pm (not 5-7pm as in the advert in the paper). This is your opportunity to find out and ask questions about the kelp farm that Kaly are proposing in Loch Bracadale so pop in between 5 and 8pm. The presentation below originally given to the Community Council last August may be of interest:

Struan Skip

Would whoever put the item below in the Struan Skip please come and collect it from the recycling point and take it away. It is not allowed in the skip and will not be taken away when the skip goes.

Also, please note the skip is already over filled please do not put any more in it!

Struan Community Skip – Friday 22nd February

There will be a skip at the re-cycling point from Friday 22nd February for use by Struan residents. Please do not leave anything outside the skip and do not fill it above the level of the sides as it will not be taken away. Also please note that there are many items that are not allowed in the skip (see note below). If any of these are found in the skip the community will be charged a substantial fee based on the weight of the whole skip. If this happens there will be no further Community Skips (which would be a shame).
