The House Team officially opened the Play barn with the help of Santa! The children presented a short speech whilst Santa played the bagpipes. A timetable will be organised to allow all classes a fair amount of time in the barn. Teaching staff will use it to teach Music, PE, Circle Time etc.
The school will be used as a polling station for the General Election on 7 May 2015.

I am delighted to tell you that the St Cadoc’s Ski Team put in a fantastic performance yesterday to place 2nd in the Scottish Schools Skier and Boarder Cross Competition at Snow Factor.
The course is a steep, with banked tight turns, and drop/jump and some technical humps/rollers. With over 150 pupils from all round Scotland competing, we had amazing individual placing’s of 1st and 2nd in the Female ski category for Isla and Erin Ward. The team were beaten by only 1 point as points are accrued from both across Snowboard and Ski disciplines. With St Cadoc’s having only skiers, taking Team 2nd was a fantastic achievement.
With a great 2nd run, Luke Burke placed 6th overall in the boys category, and 1st timers for the School, Melissa Burke and Eve Turnbull both had 2 very clean solid runs down a very tight, steep, icy course, placing well. Mareesa Cassidy, who has only had a handful of races before, was also very impressive, tackling the course with great style and posting times up next to many of the ski race trainees.
The children were, as always, polite, helpful to other teams, smiling and having fun all day. They always work well as a team and we look forward to them enjoying more schools competitions in the future.
As you know Primary 1 to Primary 3 will be performing “A Magical Nativity” and Seasonal Songs on Tuesday 9th and Wednesday 10th at 2pm in the school and Thursday 13th December at 7pm in Newton Mearns Baptist Church. Our brass and string groups will perform on both Wednesday and Thursday but unfortunately neither group will be on stage on the Tuesday.
The House Team are holding a celebration day for all our support staff on Friday 28th November. The children have invited them to join them for a ‘Celebration Tea’ and will present a PowerPoint presentation, card and cakes to show their appreciation for the work they do.
