Over the last few weeks Primary 7 have been planning and preparing a walk in which they discovered the history of Catholic Education around Barrhead. They used the St. Luke’s app ‘Anniversary Urban Walk Barrhead’ which was created by Miss Mckay.

Pupils organised the walk for the families of St. Mark’s and even wrote to the Bishop. While the Bishop contacted Miss Mckay to apologise that he would be unable to make it, he was impressed by the enthusiasm of our pupils to share the history.

Pupils then planned a walk considering the route, distance and time constraints.  On the day of the walk pupils enthusiastically talked about each location and were a credit to the school.

Thank you to all the parents and pupils who attended.
