Congratulations to our U’14s football team who have reached both the league and cup finals in the past week. We defeated St Peter the Apostle last night 3-1 in the League Semi-final. Barrie with two goals and Nimyel with the other. An unbelievable season so far and we are so proud of every one of the squad.
We would like to take the opportunity to encourage parents/carers who have yet to sign up to Parent Pay to do as soon as possible. All school trips must now be paid through Parent Pay and from Friday 25th March all payments to the Canteen will be accessed through Parent Pay too.
If you require activation details to be resent please do not hesitate to contact the school office.
Kind regards
Mr Kerr

Dear Parent/Carer,
I write to inform you that I have decided to retire at the end of the summer term in June 2022.
It has been a privilege to work in our school with so many talented and dedicated staff and I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute. It has been an honour to love, teach and care for your children for the last eight years and I want to thank all of you for your support and encouragement in this time.
It has been an incredibly challenging period over the last two years and I hope and pray that better times are ahead for all of us.
I have informed Glasgow City Council Education Department of my decision and they are making plans to advertise for the Headteacher post. In the period I have remaining in post, however, it is very much business as usual.
Best Wishes
Mr McGuigan
