As promised, a selection of photos from our World Book Day activities from our infant department 🥰🥰

This afternoon we had some special visitors at the main entrance from Onthank Primary School.  As part of their Random Acts of Kindness they presented the school with a cup of kindness poster.

Great to see you Primary 3.  Come again soon!

We had a fabulous World Book Day and the infant department had lots of book related activities going on throughout the day.

An updated blog post will go up tomorrow, showing some of our fabulous activities and super costumes worn by our children, but for now, here is a wee peek…

We had an ‘incredible’ time!!

Hogwarts came for a wee visit too!!

Currently our pupils and teachers are working on a further set of class films to share with you over the coming weeks.  These films will again be password protected with passwords sent to main/parent carer for the children in that class only.

If you do not wish for your child to be included in this film please contact the school directly by Tuesday 8th March.

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Lent begins on Ash Wednesday which is the 2^nd March this year. Mount Carmel wants to focus on helping people less fortunate than us at this special time.

This Lent, SCIAF is asking us to act and pray in hope, to fight the Climate Emergency and help build God’s Kingdom here on Earth.

As part of our Lenten celebration within school, Primary 4 have organised the following activities for the weeks of Lent:

3^rd March 2022 – World book Day (children should come to school dressed as a character from a book).

11^th March 2022 – Outdoor activity afternoon (children can bring their scooters, bikes, skipping ropes or any other outdoor toy to play with in the afternoon. Please be advised that all children bringing a bike or a scooter MUST also bring a helmet to wear for health and safety reasons).

18^th March 2022 – Activities day (each class will be given a time slot to take part in a range of activities. These activities include an Easter colouring competition, beat the goalie, egg and spoon race, selfie booth and decorate a cupcake (Please contact the school with any allergies that would stop your child from participating in this activity).

25^th March 2022 – Pyjama and movie afternoon (children can wear their pyjamas to school and will watch a movie of their choice within their classrooms. The children can also bring a small snack for this).

1^st April – Easter egg raffle/Teddy bear Raffle (tickets will be on sale from the 3^rd March and the winner will be chosen on this day).

Raffle tickets will go on sale on the 3^rd March and will cost 20p each. For the Easter egg raffle, there will be a class egg and then all the pupils who have bought a ticket will go into a big raffle for the school egg.

For the other activities, we kindly ask for a donation. Please be as generous as you feel able to be. It is for a very worthy cause.

The children can bring cash into the school for these activities and will be asked to put their donations straight into the SCIAF boxes within their classes.

A great big thank you in advance for all of your support.

Mrs. McCreadie and the boys and girls in Primary 4.

What is World Thinking Day?

World Thinking Day, formerly Thinking Day, is celebrated annually on 22 February by all Girl Guides and Girl Scouts. It is also celebrated by Scout and Guide organisations around the world. It is a day when they think about their “sisters” and “brothers” in all the countries of the world, the meaning of Guiding, and its global impact.

We will be celebrating World Thinking Day in school on Tuesday 22nd February and are inviting pupils who are part of an organisation such as Rainbows, Guides, Scouts, BB’s etc. to come to school dressed in their uniforms that day.

Primary 1/2 explored the forces of “push” and “pull”. They found that the size of the force applied affects the size of the movement!

They also had fun learning about magnets, magnetic materials and forces.

We also investigated electricity, discussing which appliances in our daily lives require power to work.

We even built our own circuits with a light bulb and switch using a battery as our power source!

Please complete the form below only if you do not wish your child to receive ashes on Ash Wednesday.
