Arrangements for pupils
Pupils will be escorted along to the PE department and exit via the fire door to access the games hall. Pupils should return to the building via Café Lourdes entrance. This will ensure a smooth flow of traffic. Disruption to lessons should last around 15 minutes. All pupils MUST see the nursing team whether they intend to receive the injection or not. If pupils have not handed their consent form in, a text message from their parent/carer indicating consent is sufficient.
The text message should state:
I am the parent/carer of (pupil name). I give/do not give consent for my child to receive the flu vaccination.
Do you have a child aged 5-16, or are you a young person aged 12-21? If so, please complete our short travel survey for a chance to win up to £250 in Love2Shop vouchers.
The Scottish Government will soon be launching the Free Bus Travel Scheme for young people between the ages of 5 and 21. This aims to encourage greener travel patterns, and increase opportunities for young people to engage in employment, education and social activities and not be excluded due to travel costs. Transport Scotland will monitor the scheme as it progresses to check on use and impact. The first step is to try and understand current travel patterns so that any changes after the scheme is introduced can be identified.
We would be grateful if parents/carers of younger children (i.e. those aged 5-16), or young people aged 12-21 themselves, could complete this short travel survey. The questionnaire asks about current travel behaviour, and your thoughts about bus travel generally and the free bus travel. This should take no more than 10 minutes to do.

Contact Us: If you have any questions about the work or problems completing the questionnaire, please contact our Project Manager, Elaine Wilson-Smith, at elaine@wellsideresearch.co.uk or on 0131 677 5522.

The amount of sleep your child gets makes a difference to their mental health and ability to learn. If your child isn’t sleeping well, see if there are any changes they could make to their bedtime routine to help them relax.

As part of Advent at Lourdes, we will be collecting for Cardonald Dog and Cat Home.
As I am sure you are aware, there is always a large number of dogs and cats on the facility looking for their forever home. We have done many collections for them in the past and the staff and furry animals have always been very appreciative at the generosity Lourdes has shown.
We are looking to collect dog and cat food, clean blankets, towels, bowls, toys, leads etc. Please note, they cannot accept duvets or pillows as they may be harmful to the animals if swallowed.
If you want to donate any items, please bring to the PE Dept or the Nurture room. We will be looking to drop these items off just before we finish up for Christmas, so plenty of time to get a winter clear out or round the shops to treat some poor wee homeless animals.
Thanks in advance.
Please see the attachment below which contains details of the National 5 Interim Assessments being held for S4 pupils during the week Mon 13 December – Friday 17 December 2021 (both dates inclusive). Pupils will have Study Leave during this period. Normal school timetable will resume on Monday 20 December 2021.
Next week is Anti- Bullying Week for all schools across the UK, the theme for 2021 is ‘One Kind Word’. All pupils will participate in themed activities during PSE lessons throughout the week. To get things off to a good start, we will be encouraging all staff and pupils to get involved in ‘Odd Socks’ day on Monday 15th November. This will be a fun way to raise awareness and to visibly demonstrate our commitment to eradicating bullying from Lourdes Secondary. #getinvolved
