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
Our Sports Day will be held on tomorrow, 6th June.
We are very excited to be holding our Sports Day tomorrow June and are keeping our fingers crossed for good weather! Parents/carers are invited to come along on the day through the main car park gates and making their way through the upper playground to the grass area at the rear of the school.
Signs will be in place to follow.
We are encouraging the children to come to school wearing their sports clothes, House colours where possible. If your child does not know what House they are in, please contact the school office.
Children should bring with them comfortable clothes as they will take part in different activities throughout the day. They should also bring sun cream, a hat, sunglasses and plenty of water.
Can we ask that immediately after your child’s races that you exit the school grounds to make way for the next group of Parents/Carers to attend and so on. Thank you.
Here is the running list for the races for each class:

We kindly ask that all children bring in their costumes ASAP as we are hoping to fit in a couple of dress rehearsals next week before our big performances. The chorus for our show are wearing white shirts, grey trousers or a skirt, white socks and black shoes.
We do really appreciate your support with this and without it we would be unable to put on such a spectacular show.
With thanks, always,
MC staff 😊

Our amazing Parents and Friends of Mount Carmel used some of their funds to buy the school a new stage, just in time for our MATILDA musical next month. The stage is built and looks amazing. We have a few very big thank yous to make. First of all, our Parents and friends of Mount Carmel. Thank you for providing the funds to buy the stage. Next we would like to give a big shout out to Stuart and Graham who travelled quite a distance to collect the stage. And finally, a big thank you to our very own Mr Leslie who spent this afternoon building the stage. It is now ready for the children to rehearse on tomorrow.
We cannot wait for you all to see our show!

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.

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.
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.
Please note: Instead of vegetarian haggis for lunch tomorrow it will be non-vegetarian. Apologies for any inconvenience.
