Well done to all who participated.  Please see below for further details.  Congratulations to Primary 5A…the overall winners!

Due to unforeseen circumstances the social media workshop on Thursday 22nd November has had to be cancelled.

Mass to celebrate Catholic Education Week will be held in St. John’s Parish Church at 12 noon on Sunday 25^th November.  Everyone is welcome to attend.

We would hope to see as many St. Mark’s Primary pupils as possible at this event.  If your child is going to be celebrating the Sacrament of Reconciliation, First Holy Communion or Confirmation in the upcoming months, this is a special time in your child’s faith journey and will be a great opportunity for you and your child to reflect on your relationship with God.

We look forward to seeing you there.  Full school uniform should be worn.

Yours sincerely,

Head Teacher

Panto 2018

A hundred years ago Poland regained independence. In 1918, World War I was over and our country was free at last after 123 years of geo-political oblivion. In 2018, we are proud to join the Polish Government and Polish people around the world in commemorating the 100th anniversary of Poland becoming an independent European country (11.11.2018).

This weekend NDT cycling will be holding an end of season bike sale at Rouken Glen Park.  Our refurbished second hand bikes will be sold at bargain prices (typically £40- £80) and will make perfect purchases early Christmas shoppers (or those eco conscious folk wanting to support the circular economy)

This Saturday NDT Cycling are holding their first ever Big Bike Sale! Make your way to the NDT Cycling Hub in Rouken Glen Park and choose from a brilliant selection of fully reconditioned second-hand bikes- including classic road bikes, BMXs, MTBs and hybrids.

NDT Cycling is a community based cycling organisation working to improve sustainability across East Renfrewshire by supporting more people to travel by bike and buy second hand.

This year over 100 bikes have been saved from landfill by making them suitable for reuse. All of our bikes are reconditioned by qualified mechanics and sold at a bargain prices, just in time for Christmas!

For those who haven’t been there already the bike hub is located in Rouken Glen Park, next to the walled Garden.
