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.
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!
A reminder that homework will stop on Friday 18th March and will resume on Monday 25th April.

During a meeting yesterday with the Synod coordinators from all 8 dioceses, as well as representatives from BCOS and SCES, it was agreed that providing families of school aged children every opportunity to participate in the Synod on Synodality, at the request of Pope Francis, is of paramount importance.
The Diocese of Galloway would therefore be grateful if parents/carers would complete the online questionnaire linked below to parents in your schools, with a deadline of Monday, 28th March.
The link is: https://form.jotform.com/213292942112954
Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can provide any further help or if you need any further information at this stage.
Kind regards,
Helena Rameckers
Diocesan Synodal Coordinator
We had a wonderful World Book Day last Friday !. All the children looked amazing and had made a lot of effort (as had the parents!).
A huge thank you to everyone who very kindly bought raffle tickets. We made a grand total of £187 which will go towards school funds. Unfortunately, there could only be one winner and that was Sophie from Primary 4.
Well done Sophie, we hope you enjoy spending your gift card!
A reminder that on 11th March there will be an outdoor activity afternoon for the children as part of Lent. 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.
