Is Parents’ Night stressful for you due to childcare issues? Read on!

October 5, 2015 Mr Boag

New Initiative!

Is Parents’ Night stressful for you due to childcare issues? Read on!

Senior students studying Child Care at college will be running a Kids’ Club during each Barrhead High parents’ evening. Children aged 3-8 can attend our new Kids’ Club where they can participate in a number of fun activities – colouring in, play doh, board games, arts and crafts and much more!

Parents will then be free to meet with the teachers of older siblings and focus on the teacher’s comments without having to supervise younger children. Children will be signed in and out and properly supervised for the duration of the evening.

If you require further information about Kids’ Club please contact Miss Hunter and the Youth Achievement Award Team.

S1-2 Football Team

September 24, 2015 Mr Boag

Hard lines to the S1/2 football team who in spite of their best efforts lost 11-1 against a strong S2 St Luke’s team.

Despite being behind and up against it for the whole game, effort levels did not drop nor did the standard of behaviour on the pitch.

Hard lines boys.

Man of the Match: Ryan Dobbins who despite playing out of position produced a solid display, well done.
