We have had several phonecalls regarding the purchase of tickets on Parentpay . 

Just to clarify; the tickets are £4 each, however, when multiple tickets are initially added to Parentpay the cost is showing as considerably more, and parents/carers are being put off purchasing them due to this.

Please be assured that when you continue with the transaction to the final payment stage, the total will be corrected.

Thank you

The cost of this trip per pupil is £15.00 (includes entry and transport)

With only 3 weeks to go till the day of our trip we still have a number of pupils who havent paid for this trip.

We also have a number of pupils who have still to return there permission slip for the trip – despite duplicate forms being issued by the office.

If we do not receive payment (via Parentpay or Paypoint) or the childs permission slip returned to school NO LATER THAN 31st May we will assume that you do not wish your child to attend the trip and they will not be allowed to attend the trip on the day.

If children do not attend the trip they should not attend school that day as there will be no school staff present on this day.

P4 reflect on Our Lady

During the Month of May, our Primary 4 Missio Champions have been continuing on their journey to be friends of Jesus.

We have a beautiful May altar in our classroom and have been reflecting on the life of Our Lady as well as praying the rosary to help us deepen  our appreciation of Mary and learn how she can help us to become missionaries of God’s love too.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel pray for us.

Change of Day-Matilda Rehearsals

Rehearsal clipart - Clipground

Please note:

This week, Matilda rehearsals will take place after school on Wednesday instead of tomorrow. We appreciate this may clash with some pupils who attend the after school Multi-sports club, however, in this instance, the show takes priority and those pupils should attend rehearsals this week rather than sports club.

Only those pupils who have already been called for rehearsals this week  should attend. 

Thank you and apologies for any inconvenience.
