Parent Council AGM
A letter was sent last week from the Parent Council giving notice of the AGM taking place on Monday 5th October. This will be a virtual meeting and if you would like to join, please contact office@ourladyshigh.n-lanark.sch.uk
Mass
Thanks to Fr. Ness for his time spent with our first year classes so far, including a Class Mass. It was great to be back in the school chapel again! The rest of the Masses for S1 will take place this week. S6 Captains also took the opportunity to introduce themselves to the S1 pupils.
Virtual Coffee Morning
Thanks to the Personal Development class for their work in organising the Virtual Coffee morning that took place last Wednesday. We received a delivery with our choice of tea/coffee and cakes and scones. A great deal of effort went into this and the pupils did a great job. The money raised will go towards their class project providing care packages to three wards in Wishaw General Hospital – dementia ward, emergency care and cancer care.
The class also ran a Beat the Goalie competition to raise funds for the same project.
We will continue to work with our school captains Niall, Lucy and Paul (below) along with the house captains in prefects in taking the school forward. The role of S6 pupils is always an important one in a school and despite the restrictions, we need to ensure that the pupils continue to have these opportunities.
