Farewell Message from our Head Teacher

Dear Parents/Carers,

In my final days before I retire on Thursday I want to say how much I have enjoyed my short time in Mount Carmel Primary. The three years I have been here have been challenging for our whole school community, but we are emerging from the restrictions of Covid 19 as a stronger, happier team.

I cannot commend all the staff enough for their hard work, dedication and love of the school and the children. They strive to make the experiences for your children the best they can be. Your children are a delight and a credit to you and I look forward to hearing about their successes in the future.

My one regret through this time is I haven’t had a chance to meet many of you personally due to restrictions but I thank you for your continuing support for the staff and the school community.

As I look forward to spending more time with my family I know I am leaving my Mount Carmel family in the safe hands of Mrs Fergusson and all the school staff.

It has been a pleasure and a privilege to be your head teacher.

School Uniform

On the return of pupils on Tuesday 19th April, following the Easter break, we would like to see everyone wearing full school uniform. This should be grey/black trousers, skirt/pinafore, school shirt and tie/polo shirt and blue school sweatshirt. No leggings/tracksuit bottoms unless on PE days where children can wear these with their school sweatshirt on top.

If pupils come to school without a school uniform  for any reason they will be provided with items of uniform for that day.

Thank you for your co-operation on this matter.

Lenten SCIAF Activities P6

On Friday of last week, Primary 6 enjoyed bike and scooter activity time outside. This was organised by Primary 4 as part of Mount Carmel’s SCIAF Fundraising over Lent.

P6 had an amazing time! We enjoyed some scooter and bike races and would like to thank you for all the generous donations towards such a good cause.

P5 Outdoor Afternoon Fun-draising for SCIAF!

As part of their ‘Charities’ topic and SCIAF Lenten fundraising, P4 put on a fabulous Outdoor activity- based afternoon for the whole school on Friday.  Pupils had a ‘wheely’ good time bringing in their scooters/bikes and even Hoverboard Segways  to whizz around the playground.

Here are some of our action-packed photos of our class enjoying their outdoor scooter/bike day afternoon…

Thank you Primary 4!
