Thank you to all who attended our first Quiz Night. We had a great turn out with 13 teams. Some very creative teams who came up with fantastic names.
The winner of the best team name was Christopher Watson and his family who were Keir Hope The Questions Aren’t Too Hardie.
There were 6 rounds and the scores were tight through the competition. However, by the end of the quiz we had a clear winner.
In joint third Place – Hayley Tucker & The Still Gamers
2nd Place – KHYT – the teachers who joined us last night
and in 1st place Keir Hardie School of Quizcraft & Quizadry.
Well done to all of our teams.
Thanks to Mrs Cosgrove for making our fantastic family night in hamper.
We asked if you would use twitter for updates and info from the school.
90 returns were made and 62 families said YES!

The pupil asked for a speaker so they could have music outside at playtime and lunch time.
We purchased two before the Easter holidays and now that the sun is shining we are able to use them.
The pupils had a great time dancing in the sun.

Dear Parents/Carers,
Thank you to all who came to our Parents’ Night on Thursday. It was lovely to see so many of our families and share your child’s learning with you.
I am still collating the responses from the questionnaire and hope to have a summary out to parents by the end of the week.
One area that was raised by a few parents was communication. This is something we can work on and already have a few plans in place to try to improve this.
Thanks to those who answer the quick questions regarding the new layout. 69 families responded give us an average of 4.7 stars out of 5.
The new layout to Parents’ Night was received well. Most comments were positive but again we will look at the few concerns some parents had in order to improve this.
Our Easter Service is on Tuesday at 11am in Newarthill Parish Church. We have pupils from all stages leading parts of the service. We hope you can join us.
We have planned a treat day with a range of activities for the pupils on Thursday.
Reminder that school closes at 2.30pm on Thursday for the Easter Break.
We would like to wish all our families a wonderful Easter.
School returns on Monday 16th April.
Thank you
Mrs Queen
