Well done to Primary 3 for creating a wonderful garden for St Cadoc’s. The children have worked very hard planting, digging and painting so we will be trying very hard to keep it looking great for the next school year!

St. Cadoc’s Primary School, Newton Mearns celebrated another wonderful World of Work Week and Financial Education Week. Pupils took part in various workshops, learning about potential careers and job prospects. Pupils were visited by SSPCA, Dog’s Trust, Pilots, Lawyers, a professional tennis player and Barclays Bank to name but a few. Children throughout the school enjoyed taking part in financial education activities learning how to budget, the rise in inflation and setting up shops. St. Cadoc’s Primary would like to take this opportunity to thank our visitors for their continued support.

The Eco Committee have been thinking of ways to encourage other children to recycle. They prepared a PowerPoint presentation explaining the materials that can be recycled, and reminded everyone about the materials St Cadoc’s recycle. They also held a ‘Rubbish Runway’ fashion show. Each model wore an outfit made from a recyclable material to demonstrate that recycling can be fun!

Well done to Sam, Samuel, Eve and Rachel from Primary 6 who competed in a K’nex challenge with St Joseph’s and OLM. They were asked to build something that could contain a water bottle. St Cadoc’s came in second place!

Award winning author and poet James Carter will be visiting St Cadoc’s on the 19th March. James is a musical poet and he will engage the children in poetry and song! There will be an opportunity for children to have copies of James’  book signed.
