Our JRSO Committee Group organised a ‘Be Bright, Be Seen’ dress down day today and loved seeing all the brightly coloured clothes that pupils came to school wearing. It is important to remember that cars can’t always see us crossing the road as it is now much darker in the mornings and at night.
Our P6/7 Committee Group members chose a winner from each class for the brightest outfit. The winners were:
P1: Jake
P2/3: Layla
P3/4: Oscar
P4/5: Tristan
P5/6: Ayden
P6/7: Millie
Well done everyone!
Well done to this week’s winners for being excellent pupils in our dinner hall.

At our Parents Night in October, we asked parents/carers for their views on Homework – and the comments confirmed our thoughts that there is a very wide range of opinions on the benefits and necessity of homework coming home from school.
As a staff we value your input and will take all of your suggestions and comments into consideration as we continue to review our homework policy and provision. We will, as always, update you with any changes.
Please have a read through the collated comments, and thanks to everyone who contributed their thoughts. Mrs Govans

Thank you to everyone who came along to our Literacy Open Morning today, despite the horrible weather!
Our pupils and staff really enjoyed showing off their Literacy learning and we hope you had a great time looking at our work and displays.
P1, P2 and P3 pupils were presented with their Bookbug and Read, Write, Count book bags – we’re sure you’ll have a lovely time reading and learning together at home.
Thanks to Captains Georgia and Marley for the photos 🤩

In our September Home Circles we highlighted Article 12 of the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child which states that every child has the right to express their views, feelings and wishes in all matters affecting them, and to have their views considered and taken seriously. This right applies at all times: during immigration proceedings, housing decisions or the child’s day to day home life.
Our questions were –
When is your opinion listened to in Catrine PS? When is your voice heard?
Why is it important that your opinion is listened to? Why should your voice be heard?
Have a read through our answers from our Home Circles jotters …
In our Home Circles today we focused on Article 3 of the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child which states that the best interests of the child must be a top priority in all decision and actions that affect children.

Who is involved in making decisions which affect you in school and at home?
Why are these people involved in making decisions which affect you?
