Well done to this week’s winners for being excellent pupils in our dinner hall.

Getting our children to and from school safely is the responsibility of everyone in our village.

Catrine PS is proud to be a School Streets area and to keep our pupils safe we have parking restrictions in place around our school streets at both drop-off and pick-up times.

Between 8.45-9.15am and 2.45-3.15pm, the streets around our school should be free from all unnecessary traffic, apart from residents, to ensure our pupils and wider school community can enter and leave our school safely.

We have noticed an increase in the number of pupils being dropped off at the school each morning, and in the number of cars being parked at our school gates.  If your child can walk to school, we ask that you encourage them to do so to keep the traffic away from our School Streets area. 

We would appreciate your  support in this matter.  Thank you.

Cole in Primary 6  has shown great perseverance and skill in completing a 3D jigsaw, shaped like a ball.

He really concentrated and had to be very careful when placing each individual piece to ensure it didn’t fall to bits!

He is very chuffed with his achievement – well done, Cole!

We will be celebrating Hallowe’en on Friday 31st October at the school.

Pupils can either come to school in a Hallowe’en costume or dressed in casual clothes like a Dress Down Day.

Please ensure that their Hallowe’en costume is suitable for playing outside during interval and lunch, and that they can take it on and off by themselves when using the toilet.

Please note – no huge accessories (swords etc) or scary masks.

Our pupils will be taking part in Hallowe’en activities throughout the day and will be having a party in their class in the afternoon.

We’re looking forward to a spooky and fun-filled day!
