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

We are delighted to celebrate our Head Teacher’s Award winners for June. These pupils have been recognised for their positivity, effort and commitment to our school values.

Throughout the month, they have shown excellent attitude to learning, kindness to others and a determination to do their best in all that they do. They are fantastic role models within our school community and we are very proud of them.

Congratulations to all of our winners, keep up the fantastic work!

A huge thank you to all of our wonderful nursery families who came along to take part in our community clean-up at the woods!

It was fantastic to see so many children and parents working together to care for our local environment. Together, everyone managed to collect an incredible three bags of rubbish, making a real difference to the area. The teamwork, enthusiasm and sense of community on display made the day truly special, and the woods are looking so much better thanks to everyone’s efforts.

We really appreciate everyone who gave up their time to help. Thank you for being such a valued and supportive part of our nursery community!

Primary 4 had a fantastic day on their recent class trip to Almond Valley Heritage Park!

The children loved meeting the animals, exploring the outdoor play areas and enjoying time together. There were smiles all round as they discovered new things, built friendships and made lots of happy memories.

It was a wonderful day filled with fun, learning and laughter. Well done to Primary 4 for representing our school so well, we are proud of you!

Last week, our Primary 7 pupils enjoyed an unforgettable residential visit to Inverclyde. From the moment they arrived, the children embraced every opportunity with enthusiasm and positivity, making the most of this special experience together.

Throughout the week, they took part in a wide range of exciting activities, including watersports, the climbing wall, gymnastics and archery. Evenings were just as memorable, with a lovely walk into Largs for ice cream, time spent relaxing by the beach, as well as a disco and a fun movie and World Cup night.

We are incredibly proud of how our pupils represented our school. They showed great teamwork, resilience and kindness throughout the trip. It was a fantastic experience for everyone involved, and the staff also thoroughly enjoyed sharing these special memories with the children.

Our Mini Vinnies have been busy putting their faith into action by collecting a fantastic range of items for our local food bank.

Thanks to their generosity and commitment to helping others, these donations were gratefully received when they were collected last week by our SSVP link, Mr Ballantine.

We are very proud of our Mini Vinnies for showing such kindness, compassion and a real sense of service to others within our community.

Primary 3 and Primary 5 had a fantastic day out at the Five Sisters Zoo! The visit began with an engaging rainforest workshop, where pupils learned about different habitats, animals and how we can help protect our environment. The children asked thoughtful questions and showed great enthusiasm throughout.

We are delighted to congratulate our Primary 4 pupils who recently received the Sacrament of First Holy Communion. This is a very special milestone in their faith journey, and we are incredibly proud of each and every child.

The children showed great reverence, maturity and understanding as they prepared for and participated in this important sacrament. It was a joyful and meaningful celebration for our school and parish community.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to our parents and families for their continued support and encouragement at home. Their guidance plays a vital role in nurturing our children’s faith.

We are also very grateful to our teachers and staff for their commitment in preparing the pupils so thoughtfully, ensuring they were ready to take this important step with confidence.

Well done to all our Primary 4 pupils on this wonderful achievement. We keep them in our prayers as they continue on their faith journey.

We are delighted to celebrate our Head Teacher Award winners for May. These pupils have made us incredibly proud through their achievements across learning, relationships, faith and the wider life of our school.

They have shown dedication, kindness and a strong sense of responsibility, both in the classroom and beyond. Through their positive attitude, respect for others and commitment to living out our Gospel values, they are excellent role models for our school community.

Well done to all of our May award winners, we are very proud of you!
