CRAIGROYSTON HIGH SCHOOL’S GARDEN ALSO HIT BY VANDALISM
Community Garden Vandalism
We’re really saddened and frustrated to share that nearly all of our garden beds have been damaged. The wood has been broken, and many of the plants and vegetables that young people and volunteers worked so hard to grow have been pulled out.
This garden means a lot to our community, and it’s disheartening to see so much hard work destroyed. If anyone saw anything or knows who was involved, please get in touch.
We’re determined to repair the damage and keep this space thriving 
Craigroyston Community High School has been hit by an attack. The school responded to PYCP:
Awful 
We’re about to post the same thing about our garden in the SfL department. It’s so disheartening when we try so hard to keep it good and our young people are working in it

THE GREENHOUSE HOSTS A DAY TO REMEMBER
Over 300 children, parents, and fun-loving family members joined us for an unforgettable Open Day last week (Thursday 4 July). It was a day filled with laughter, joy, and a whole lot of fun!
In collaboration with our fantastic partners at Places for People Scotland, we transformed PY into a wonderland of activities:
From face painting that turned kids into their favourite superheroes, to glitter tattoos that sparkled brighter than the stars, we had it all!
And who could forget the bouncy castles and sumo wrestling? Not to mention the mouth-watering hot dogs, delicious cakes, and sweet treats that had everyone coming back for seconds (and thirds)!
But the fun didn’t stop there! We took creativity to a whole new level with our outdoor painting activity.
The children left their colourful handprints on our newly painted wall, turning it into a vibrant mural that will remind us of this special day for years to come.
A big shout-out to Police Scotland for joining in on the fun! And a massive thank you to everyone who donated prizes for the raffle.
Our event was made even more special with the presence of Fat Brestovci, the charismatic Capital Breakfast Show presenter who supports PYCP. He was there to hand out prizes and his energy was simply contagious!
We couldn’t have pulled off such a successful event without the unwavering support of our funders who have stood by us year after year.
A heartfelt thank you to all our dedicated staff and volunteers who worked tirelessly to make this event a hit.
And of course, a huge round of applause for all the families who joined us. You are the reason we host events like this and your participation means the world to us.
From all the PY Team xx
