Mrs N’s Notes, 23.2.24
Week 2 menus coming up next week. Please note that we will be serving soup and sandwiches ONLY on Tuesday. There will be no hot service that day in either the school or nursery.
CAREERS FAYRE – HUGE THANKS
We were delighted to welcome so many adults from our immediate school community and beyond to share the stories of their career paths this week. Our learners from P.5-7 all had the opportunity to learn directly from those who know best! This is all part of our school developments around Developing the Young Workforce.
Can we say another HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who made the day such a success!
LEAVERS’ HOODIES
Our Parent Council have organised Leavers’ Hoodies for our Primary 7 pupils. The deadline for order forms is next Thursday, 29.2.24. PLEASE REMEMBER, all forms AND money must be in by this date.
COATBRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL – VISIT
On Wednesday 28th February all Kirkshaws families moving to Coatbridge High School this summer are invited to attend an additional visit from 4pm. This will give you the chance to tour the school in smaller groups and get the chance to have your questions answered. P.7 pupils are encouraged to attend alongside parents.
WORLD BOOK DAY
An email came home earlier this week, reminding all families that World Book Day is coming up on 7th March. As always, we continue to reinforce the message that no-one is expected to spend any money on this event. We know some children love to dress up as book characters and we won’t stop them, but this is not an expectation and we certainly don’t want any families going out and spending lots of money on costumes. The day is all about READING – a free, fun activity for all. Much more information in the email.
