Primary 4/5 enjoyed representing simple fractions outside with natural resources. This activity allowed us to demonstrate our understanding of numerator and denominator that we had been learning in class.
Every month in our Home Circles at Catrine Primary School, and in the Welcome Groups at Catrine ECC, we will be focussing on one of our Catrine Values to ensure that our pupils have a solid understanding of them.
Our Values are – Ambition, Determination, Fairness, Honesty, Respect, Responsibility and Teamwork.
We would appreciate your views on what Respect means to you and your family.
Responses will be collated and displayed around our school and ECC to show a shared understanding of our Catrine Values from all stakeholders – pupils, parents and staff.
Thank you.
We regularly highlight our Vision, Values and Aims with our pupils in both our school and ECC through a variety of activities, and our pupils have a good understanding of what they mean and how we apply them at Catrine PS and ECC. Through monthly GLOW questionnaires, we ask parents/carers for their opinions and comments about our school and ECC, and their responses are always very much appreciated. As a staff, we annually review our Vision, Values and Aims and have collaborated to produce a poster detailing them, which will be a reference point for future discussions with our pupils, and for our priorities moving forward. Our Vision, Values and Aims poster highlight our priorities and give examples of how we put them into action in our establishments.
I’m proud to present you with our new Vision, Values and Aims poster which will be proudly displayed in both our school and ECC.
Coming soon – our new Curriculum Rationale.

As we have pupils with severe nut allergies, can all parents/carers ensure that pupils DO NOT bring in food for snacks/packed lunches that contain nuts or traces of nuts. The health and well-being of our pupils is a main priority, and we much appreciate your support in keeping our children safe.
Please contact the school office for any further information.
Thank you.

We look forward to seeing you at our Christmas Service and Infant Nativity tomorrow at 9.45 a.m. at Catrine Parish Church.

Thank you.
The whole school is having a Christmas/Winter jumper day on Wednesday 11th December. Primary 6 will be “carol singing” with the ECC in Catrine Square and it’s also our Festive lunch day.
Our Christmas Fayre last night was a great success. Our total profit raised was £762.50!! This was due to the continued support of parents/carers/family friends and the local community. Thank you!! Have a look ….
Catrine Parent Council play a crucial part in our school life and are vital to school successes. They also raised £145.80 for their funds.
With Christmas fast approaching, we are all aware of the financial effects of the holiday season on the lives of families in our area. Some families may feel under pressure to show their appreciation to staff in the school and ECC by buying gifts and presents.
Last year the BBC ran a feature about this with the simple message that thank you is enough. We want to share this message with you this year to reassure any parents/carers that are worried about affording a gift for a teacher/staff member in the run up to the Christmas break.

So, just a reminder that a thank you, a card, a handmade token of appreciation and the thought behind these small gestures, is more than enough for us.
Wishing you all the best this festive season,
Christmas Lunch will be served on Wednesday 11 December and is now available to order on ParentPay. Please ensure you have your child’s lunch ordered by Friday 6 December.
Thank you.
