HT Update – 20.3.23

Sustrans – Big Walk & Wheel 20 – 31 March 2023

Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel is the UK’s largest walking, wheeling, scooting and cycling challenge. It inspires pupils to make active journeys to school, improve air quality in their neighbourhood and discover how these changes benefit their world.

It’s more important now than ever to travel actively. Active travel is a great way to build physical activity into children’s daily routine. It helps them arrive to school  more relaxed and alert, and is great for their mental wellbeing too.

On each day of the challenge schools compete to see who can record the greatest number of pupils walking, using a wheelchair, scooting or cycling to school.

A school’s best five days will determine their final position and schools at the top of their leaderboards will receive an exclusive Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel Cerificate.

All schools will be entered into daily prize draws for  rewards if over 15% of your school takes part on each day of the challenge. Prizes up for grabs include accessories and equipment to help your school travel actively.

Leave the car at home and join us in active travel to school.

NLC Football Festival P6-7

Pupils from Primary 6 & 7 had a fantastic time at the North Lanarkshire Active Schools football festival this week. Well done to everyone who took part. A special thank you to Mr McDonald for coaching our boys team and Ricky Waddell from Caledonian Braves who came along to provide support and advice.

Improving Attendance

Improving attendance is part of our school improvement plan and a focus for all the schools in the Bellshill Academy Cluster.

The target for North Lanarkshire’s Schools for attendance is 95%.

Last session our average attendance was 90%.

We hope to improve this by 3% this session.

Schools in our cluster will be:

  • Reviewing attendance for each year group every month.
  • Contacting parents/carers of those children whose attendance is below average.
  • Working with partners to support families with children who regularly miss school.

Parents and Carers are asked to co-operate by:

  • Keeping planned absences to a minimum during term time (holidays/appointments etc).
  • Ensure that pupils arrive on time for school.
  • Contact the school as soon as possible to advise of any absences.

__________________________________________________________________________Parents Meetings – Thursday 24th November.

Parents Meetings will take place on Thursday 24th November between 3pm – 8pm.

Bookings can be made from Monday 7th November.

You should have received information on how to book an appointment. If you have any difficulty please contact the school office between 10pm – 2pm.
