Welcome back to Our Lady’s

It is hard to believe that we are now in the month of September and we have been back at school for a number of weeks.  I was delighted to welcome our young people back to Our Lady’s High School after the summer break and to once again hear the sound of a school filled with pupils.  Although school is a little different just now, having our community together again is something we are very proud of.  We are especially pleased to welcome our new S1 pupils to Our Lady’s.

Our young people have been adjusting to all of the new protocols and procedures that are now in place. They are using their new entry and exit points, following the one way systems, responding to our staggered bells, accepting of our frequent hand sanitising, enjoying their new areas and yards for socialising while they are getting used to wearing face coverings.

Face to face teaching and learning is what we all want and our classrooms are alive again.  Staff have been reminding pupils about Microsoft Teams and Glow in the event that we need to resort to a blended learning programme in the future.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all parents and carers for their support as we adjust to our new normal.

We thank Our Lady for keeping our community safe and pray that we are moving towards brighter times for everyone.

Mrs Cunningham, Head Teacher
