Some of our proud parents have been posting tweets of photographs from Tuesday’s BGE Award Ceremony. Follow the school twitter on @CN_HS for news, information and photographs from all our exciting events.
Due to an ongoing incident in Paris the Lourdes Group are not visiting Paris city centre.
Mr McGrory, our group leader, has reported that everyone is safe and well but that they have decided to put Plan B into operation.
The pupils will now visit Versailles instead.
S1 Enterprise classes have been inviting their parents to attend coffee shops in Snap Dragon this week. The pupils plan, prepare and serve all the sandwiches, cakes, tea and coffee. Jobs include food preparation, dish washer filling, serving and front of house duties – all carried out in our professional kitchen and restaurant.
It’s fantastic to see so many parents and family members getting involved in the life of the school – Parental Involvement is so important to staff and pupils. Thank you.
This years’ welcome disco saw 124 P7 pupils come together to have fun in CNHS. Music, dancing, games and a photo booth were just some of the highlights.
Update on our new multipurpose sports ground – May 10th 2017 – Exciting stuff!
