Last week marked the beginning of Health Fortnight.  The children have been practising with Rookie Rockstars in preparation for this week’s performances.  The children will also take part in Zumba lessons this week.

We had a very successful book week, ending with ‘Dress as your favourite book character’.  We had lots of inventive and creative costumes and carried out many activities based on our favourite books, including a visit from a librarian for P1 and P2.  There are lots of pictures on twitter and photographs of our decorated classroom doors will follow.  Thank you to Mrs Crooks for organising this.

Congratulations to our 4 P7’s who participated in the Primary Reading Quiz.  Mrs Crooks took the children to Wishaw Library, where they answered questions about the favourite books.  The children were fantastic and are hoping to secure a place in the Reading Quiz Final.  Well done – we are so proud of you!

Congratulations to the boys and girls in P3, P4, P6 and P7, who were enrolled last week for the sacraments.  The children sang beautifully and represented our school well.  Thank you to all friends, family and staff who came to support them.

It was lovely to see so many people at the Ash Wednesday service.  Mass will be celebrated during Lent on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8:25am.  We hope to see many of you there.

This week, including our Rookie Rockstars performance and Zumba classes, the nursery have three ‘Come and Play’ days and Friday will be Crazy Hair Day!
