Make Catrine Sparkle – Sunday 3rd December

Just a reminder that this Sunday the above event will be taking place.

Lanterns can be collected from Lodge St John from 4.00pm, with the parade starting from the top shops at 5.00pm.

Catrine PS pupils have been learning some Christmas songs in school, and we will be having a community singalong in the Square when the parade is finished (aiming for a 5.45pm start). Any pupils, family and friends who would like to join us in a wee Christmas singalong should meet us in the Square from 5.30pm.

Remember to wrap up warmly on Sunday – the forecast is for a very cold and frosty evening.

JRSO – Be Bright, Be Seen Day

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!

Homework Consultation

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

Literacy morning

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 🤩
