Go to this Sway

We look forward to hosting our first achievement assembly of 2026 on Friday 13th February.

If your child has celebrated any achievements out-with school e.g. earned a swimming badge, learned to ride their bike, gained badges at a hobby etc., then they are able to bring in such items to share at this special assembly.

We look forward to celebrating the success of our pupils!

School Update

Due to ongoing oven faults at Catrine Kitchen there will be no baked potatoes until further notice. Unfortunately there may also be slight adjustments to daily menus until kitchen equipment is sorted.

Further updates will follow.

Please contact the school office if you have any issues. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Thank you.

As part of a new initiative, we have created a new tab on our school website called “Ochiltree TV”. This will allow us to share videos created by classes as well as any films created as part of the Into Film programme.

We currently have links to videos showcasing:

• P1/2’s rendition of “Up In the Morning Early” by Robert Burns
• Primary 6/7’s explanation of Restorative Conversations
• Bethlehem – The Musical – December 2025

TTT Boxing Academy

Well done to our Primary 6 and Primary 7 pupils who participated in the first heat of the Sportshall Athletics on Friday at the Robert Burns Academy. We are awaiting completion of the heats to see if we have progressed to the next round. Great effort from all!

As part of our Primary 7 transition work with Robert Burns Academy, all Primary 7 pupils will be working on an online profile through Skills Development Scotland. This will involve pupils creating a secure online profile through their Glow email to track their achievements both in and out of school. These profiles can then be shared with staff at RBA securely.

All work will be completed in school, however should you wish your child not take part in this, please contact the school before Friday 30^th January, when the first session will take place.

Please find attached a copy of the Programme of activities for the P7 Residential trip to Inverclyde, along with a sample menu for the week. Accommodations can be made with advanced notice to ensure all children attending receive a comfortable experience.

A Parent Information session will be held on Thursday 19th February at 5:00pm in the school, with Gareth Turner from Inverclyde available to answer any questions.

All deposits should be paid by Friday 16th January to payment to Inverclyde to be made.
