The painters are almost ready to move onto their final classroom (Primary 1 Rockets) and will then only have a few small areas of the building to finish off. We’ve taken the opportunity during the painting to have a major spring clean and although this has resulted in ultra tidy classrooms, it has also meant that the open areas have filled up with lots of unwanted stuff. To enable us to have one final push at the big clear-out, we’ve hired a skip this week with the aim of having the corridors back to normal by close of school on Thursday and every inch of St Bart’s spick and span for the new term! So, if you happen to catch me, Mrs Bolland or Mrs MacIntyre in an old pair of jeans and t-shirt today, you’ll know why!

It was great to see such a great turnout at yesterday morning’s Stations of the Cross. Stations of the Cross will continue in the oratory throughout this week at 8.50am. All pupils, staff, parents and parishioners are very welcome.
