Our continuity programme continued this week and as always our pupils represented our school well.  Wednesday saw the last of our Choir After School Club until after Christmas.  On Thursday, our Nursery children performed their Nativity for parents and grandparents and did very well.  Many thanks to our hard-working Nursery team for all the preparation involved in this.  On Friday, our choir performed at the Regent Shopping Centre in Hamilton to a huge crowd and were absolutely outstanding.  They sang beautifully, and a few tears were shed when they sang O Holy Night and Auld Lang Syne.  There is only a week to go before the Regent Choir Competition winners are announced, so if you haven’t already voted, please do so as they deserve to win.

We have a very busy week ahead!

On Monday, we have our first performance of our Upper School Carol Concert in the afternoon.

On Tuesday, we have Mass at St. Francis Xavier to celebrate the Feast of the Immaculate Conception and there will be no coffee morning that day. We will then have our first afternoon performance of our Infant Nativity.  On Tuesday evening, we have both our Infant Nativity and our Carol Concert.

On Wednesday, we have our final performances of the Carol Concert in the morning and the Infant Nativity in the afternoon.

On Thursday, our whole school visits the Panto at Motherwell Civic in the afternoon – a letter was issued to all parents with detailed information of this outing as we will have a late return to school and there will be no bus or crossing patrol.

On Friday, we will have the chance to catch our breaths before another busy week the following week!

There are still tickets left to all performances of both the Nativity and the Carol Concert – please contact the school office if you would like more tickets.

There will be early lunches on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week due to afternoon performances and our pantomime – a text reminder and tweet will be sent to remind parents of any children who are going home for lunch.

We hope you can make it along to one of our performances this week as our children have worked very hard and are sure to entertain you!
