Garvald Guising* and Children’s Party (*change to guising arrangements)
It’s less than three weeks away…. and YES – the Children’s Halloween party is on.
*PLEASE NOTE* – this year guising will not be ‘organised’ in the two groups (with distribution of collection sweets) as there are now so many children. So be aware that you may get a few knocks at the door…
ELC Star Awards 2017
East Lothian Council’s Star Awards 2017 will take place in December this year. The awards identify and reward excellence, inspiring practitioners and benefiting the public. Every year the number of nominations for each category from council staff and members of the public has grown. There are two constants – the pride and sense of achievement felt by the winners and shortlisted entrants and the rigour with which the entries are judged. Our awards reward effectiveness and excellence across all areas of our business and celebrate high quality service, creativity and innovation.
If any of East Lothian Council’s employees are stars in your eyes, why not nominate them. It’s your way, and ours, of saying thank you for a job well done.
Nominations can be made online http://intranet.eastlothian.gov.uk/news/article/3/star_awards_2016
Closing date is Friday 20 October
Garvald website hosting
Just to let you know that we will be switching to a new website hosting company in the near future. Please bear with us if there are any teething problems but hopefully it will all go smoothly and you won’t even notice.

Children’s Halloween and Christmas parties
Do you have young children in the village? In true Garvald style, Jo (and helpers) are looking to hand over the job of arranging the Halloween children’s party and guising and the Christmas children’s party. There really isn’t much to it (especially if a few pitch in).
Please get in touch via the contact form (or call Jo 830685) if interested. Thanks!
