OLGA Cathedral Primary School and Firpark Primary School are privileged to share the same campus. Cathedral and Firpark staff came together on Tuesday 16th August to begin to reconnect after COVID and explore how the two schools might work more closely in the coming months and years.

Once established, our ‘CA-FI Connections’ programme will provide regular opportunities for Cathedral and Firpark pupils to come together, build friendships and engage in meaningful learning experiences. We will endeavour to ensure all CA-FI Connections activities are:

INCLUSIVE, allowing all Firpark & Cathedral pupils to fully participate.

MEANINGFUL, providing authentic learning opportunities, linked to Curriculum for Excellence Experiences & Outcomes, for pupils from both establishments.

COLLABORATIVE, planned and led equally by class teachers from both establishments.

MANAGEABLE & PROPORTIONATE, avoiding unnecessary workload for staff and protecting time for the children’s other learning.

SUSTAINABLE, able take place on an annual basis.

Staff from both schools are really excited about working together and are looking forward to helping Cathedral and Firpark pupils connect in fun and informal ways during the course of this term.
