St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Primary School, Bo’ness

This week, our Primary 3 pupils proudly led a special assembly for their families, celebrating their learning and achievements from across the school year.

The children confidently shared highlights from their class novels, explaining how the stories inspired and enriched learning experiences across different areas of the curriculum.

Primary 3 also took time to reflect on their journey of faith, sharing their thoughts and experiences of preparing for and receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation. They spoke thoughtfully about what they had learned and how this important milestone has supported their spiritual growth.

Following the assembly, families were invited back to the classroom where they had the opportunity to explore displays and examples of work. The children enjoyed sharing their achievements and discussing the progress they have made throughout the year.

We are incredibly proud of the confidence, enthusiasm and maturity shown by our Primary 3 pupils. Thank you to all the families who joined us to celebrate their learning.

During today’s assembly, children from across the school shared what they have been learning through their Explore More tasks. It was wonderful to hear about the different topics, projects and interests that pupils have been exploring.

Following this, we had a discussion about the skills that each class has been developing. Using our new skills mats, pupils identified and reflected on the skills they have been using in their learning.

It was fantastic to see children making connections between their learning experiences and the important skills they are developing for learning, life and work.

Well done to all of our pupils for their fantastic effort, enthusiasm and sportsmanship during Sports Day. It was wonderful to see everyone taking part, encouraging one another and enjoying the day together.

A huge thank you to all parents and carers for coming along to support the children, your encouragement helped make the event so special.

We would also like to give a special thank you to Mrs Young for all of her hard work in organising such a successful and enjoyable day for everyone.

Finally, thank you to the Parent Council for organising teas, coffees and snacks throughout the day. Your support and help were greatly appreciated by all.

Primary 1 and 2 had a fantastic day at Briarlands Farm. The children enjoyed animal handling, playing in the park and going on a tractor ride.

It was a fantastic day filled with smiles, laughter and new experiences. Well done to all of our pupils for representing the school so well throughout the trip!

Our Primary 7 pupils organised and hosted a fantastic fundraising day for the whole school. The event was filled with excitement, laughter and creativity, and everyone had a wonderful time taking part in the different activities on offer.

There was something for everyone to enjoy, including “Beat the Goalie”, “Soak the P7”, nail painting  and a popular stalls selling bracelets and impressive 3D printed models created by the pupils. The children showed excellent teamwork, organisation and enthusiasm throughout the day, helping to make the event such a success.

A huge thank you to all pupils, staff and families for your generous donations and support. Thanks to your kindness, the Primary 7 pupils raised a fantastic amount of money which will go towards their end of term fun day.
