Since returning to school following the summer break, we have had a number of school cardigans/jumpers without names on (mainly from our infant department)  handed into lost property. Our Lost Property is situated within our main foyer. If your child has lost any items of school uniform please double check in our Lost Property.  Items will be kept there on a weekly basis and if not claimed on a Friday will be automatically added to our Uniform Exchange.

Can we please ask that Parents/carers make sure that their Parentpay accounts have a balance on them at all times to prevent your account falling into minus.

Thank you

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.
