It’s the last day of term and St Bartholomew’s has a fun-packed day ahead! The residents of Townhead are in for a nice surprise this morning when they see St Bart’s pupils making their way to school in their pyjamas and onesies! Keep an eye on the blog today for photographs of pupils and staff in their bedtime gear!

At 9.25am, a special bell will sound to signal the start of our egg-decorating competition. The boys and girls have been mulling over their ideas all week and will have one hour to decorate their hard-boiled egg and bring their idea to life. I can’t wait to see all the creative ideas… although it’s going to be a very difficult job choosing the winning egg from each class!

At 11.00 o’clock, the children will head back out into the playground (weather permitting) for an Easter egg hunt. There’ll be a creme egg for every boy and girl to find. It’s going to be a very amusing sight seeing St Bart’s pupils darting around the playground in all those onesies!!!

We’ll be rounding off the day with our weekly whole-school assembly. As well as the usual Pupil of the Week certificates and trophies, the seven winning eggs will be announced and prizes will be awarded.

Many thanks to Mr Hughes and Primary 6 for giving the school grounds a spring-clean yesterday. You were a fantastic litter-busting team and your hard work has made a huge difference to the grounds. Well done and thank you!

Keep an eye on today’s blog for photographs of all our fun activities as well as an announcement of how much money our various activities this week have raised for SCIAF.

Thank you boys, girls and staff for all your hard work this term. Enjoy a well-earned break over the Easter holidays. See you on Tuesday 22nd April!
