Thank You

Thank you to everyone who was able to join us at our Easter Service this morning.  A special thank you goes to all of those who were able to accompany the children as they walked to and from the church.  As always we are very grateful for your help and support to make this happen.  Another special thank your goes to Rev. Lacy who spoke at the service and  to the lovely Vanda who helped us set up all the technology as well.

Thank you everyone and have a Happy Easter.

Community Litter Pick

Do you want to make a difference to your community?  Then get involved! Cllr S Cogley has sent information about an event taking place during the school holidays.
The Galston Community Litter Pick is taking place on Saturday 12th April, meeting at 10 am in Tescos car park.
Everyone is welcome children and young people, parents and the young at heart.  Come along and make a difference to your community.

Dress Down Day Reminder

On the last Friday of every month (unless advised by school) we have “Dress Down Day” for the pupils and staff. We ask for a donation to participate in this fun activity. The monies raised from Dress Down Day are used to purchase additional resources and treats for the pupils.. The recommended amount is £1 per pupil. We are now a cashless school and unfortunately, we do not accept any cash in the school.  A payment item has been created on ParentPay  called Dress Down Day Donations where you can make your donations direct. You can also request a barcoded letter from the school office and use this to make donations for all Dress Down Days.  
Thank you for your continued support.

Scavenger Hunt

We are thrilled to share that our Rights Respecting Schools Committee has been diligently working behind the scenes to kick off preparations for our much-anticipated annual UNCRC Article Scavenger Hunt! This engaging event is a wonderful opportunity for students and the community to explore and understand the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) in an interactive and fun way. The scavenger hunt encourages students to learn about their rights, promoting a school culture that values respect, understanding, and inclusivity. We are eager to foster a deeper appreciation of these important principles among our young learners. Stay tuned for more details, as we’ll be providing further information next week. Thank you for your ongoing support, and we look forward to another successful and enlightening event!

Road Safety Magic!

Primary 1 – 5 all had a magical time at Alans Magic Road Safety show today.  They gained their Official Magician’s Assistant certificates by knowing and demonstrating the road safety rules. Alan the magician showed us lots of magic while reminding us how to be safe when crossing the road.  Ask the children from P1 to P5 to tell you about what they learned.

Primary 5CM & Primary 5P

You are invited to attend a Parental Engagement Afternoon for our P5 classes on 19/3/25 from 2pm – 3pm. This is an opportunity to visit your child’s class and see the work that they have been doing in. This will also allow you to see the work they have been doing on their Titanic topic before their outing to Belfast on 24/4/25.
Thank you
