We were delighted to see everyone back at school yesterday after the summer break. We hope you all had a wonderful summer and that all our pupils are excited to be starting in their new classes.
It was lovely watching all our new Primary 1’s coming in to school on their first day yesterday. We look forward to getting to know them all over the coming weeks.
Everyone at Mount Carmel also wish our P7’s who left us in June the best of luck as they begin their new journey at secondary school.
A reminder that tomorrow is our whole school fun day!!
This is a non uniform day .Children can come to school wearing comfortable, casual clothes as there will be bouncy castles etc. If the weather is not on our side, we will erect the bouncy castles/inflatables inside the school.
There will also be an ice cream van for the children in the afternoon, no money is required for this.
The whole school will be attending an End of Term Mass at 11am on Thursday 29th.
Our wonderful school choir will be singing and this will be a very poignant Mass for us as this will be our final one with Father Martin, so lets make it extra special!
Everyone welcome.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel church will be celebrating The Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary this Saturday 17th June at 10am.
Everyone is welcome to come and join this celebration.
Don’t forget that this afternoon’s performance of our summer show is at 1.15pm today!
Mr Bertoncini is looking for photographs of the P7’s on their first day at school to put in the P7 yearbook. If you don’t have one, you can always send in a photo of them when they were about 4/5yrs of age.
Please send any pictures direct to Mr Bertoncini at:
