Sport Your Trainers 2014

We will be participating in Sport Your Trainers 2014.  Please wear your trainers to school on Monday 10 March.

‘Sport Your Trainers’ is the national campaign which asks people to wear their trainers as a symbolic gesture of support for Glasgow 2014. It’s taking place on Commonwealth Day, Monday 10 March 2014. It’s the perfect opportunity for schools and groups to get active and focus on sport. It also provides a platform for learning about the countries of the Commonwealth – their people, culture and history.

We have been given the opportunity to participate in an East Renfrewshire Fairtrade competition organised by Jim Murphy MP.

The competition is to design a tea towel. There will be a prize for the best tea towel in East Renfrewshire and two runners up. The deadline is Wednesday 26th February.

All entries will be displayed and winners announced at a special family event in the Newton Mearns Baptist Church on Saturday 1st March, from 2 pm to 4 pm.

School Meals Website

East Renfrewshire Council are the first council in Scotland to have a micro site showing various information on catering and menus available to pupils. There is a parental survey also included on this new site.

On this website not only will you find out what is being served on any particular day at your school’s dining hall, but you’ll also be able to see nutritional, allergy and recipe information for all our main meals. We’ll also be updating the website with promotions and interesting facts about food, including some great recipes for you to try at home.
