Holy Family wants your Holey Socks!
The Eco Team have an idea up their sleeves to cut down on plastic waste. What’s that got to do with socks? Well, let me tell you. Currently we use plastic sponges to clean our whiteboards but these rip and disintegrate and don’t last very long. They are bad for the planet.
We have the solution at our fingertips (or rather, our toes!): old socks that are destined for the bin can instead be given a new purpose! We are looking for holey socks AND socks searching for a “sole”mate (odd socks)!
Please start collecting together your odd and holey socks and bring them in to Holey (I mean HOLY) Family! (We will wash them on HOT and make sure they are safe and clean to use – don’t worry: no smelly socks here!)

P3/2 Pattern Work
P3/2 explored pattern using a range of concrete materials, drawing picture patterns and finding number patterns in 100-squares, linking to multiplication.
There was lots of interesting discussion and some great teamwork. The children had lots of fun and learned a lot along the way. Their Learning Lion and Successful Spider were thrilled with the children’s progress!
Carlo Acutis Exhibition
P3/2 enjoyed a fascinating talk and video all about Carlo Acutis at Holy Family parish last week. The children were so engaged and the ladies presenting were extremely knowledgeable. A big thank you to them and to Fr Krzysztof for welcoming us.
Reconciliation
These children made their first reconciliations this evening. It was a beautiful celebration and we are all very proud of you.
P3/2 Retreat Monday 17th March
Please wear your own, comfortable, clothes for tomorrow’s retreat, Primary 3/2. We will start the day with mass and then spend the remainder in the church hall for our Reconciliation Retreat. This is for all pupils in P3/2.
Thank you,
Mrs Cooney and Mrs Daisley
Friday 7th March Dress Down Day
Tomorrow is a dress down day and we ask for a maximum donation of £1 for Lenten charities. If you would prefer to bring a food bank donation, this will be welcomed too. Thank you.
P3/2 pupils’ Dinosaur Habitats
The pupils in Primary 3/2 are in the middle of a brilliant topic all about dinosaurs. As an extra homework task, they were given a cardboard box and some art supplies and asked to make a dinosaur habitat. The results, I’m sure you will agree, are fantastic! Well done everybody!

We are excited to announce that Period Dignity Week will be taking place from 17th to 21st February 2025 across North Lanarkshire.
