Thank You!

Many thanks to all parents and grandparents who joined us for the Christmas Nativity and Concert.  We hope you enjoyed seeing the wonderfully talented children of St.Augustine’s school.  You truly have amazing children! A huge thank you to everyone for your generosity in supporting our Christmas Appeals this year. New Beginnings Charity for the Homeless were left speechless when they came to collect your donations.  They said they are immensely grateful to you all and that your donations will make a huge difference to the lives of many.  Our appeal on Friday for donations for Coatbridge Foodbank and the People’s Pantry far exceeded our expectations.  In fact the charities themselves have had to organise bigger transport to collect all the donations that covered our foyer on Friday. Thank you.

What’s on this week?

Last week many of our Pr.5, 6 and 7 pupils set off on the most amazing school trip.  They headed off all the way to Belfast to visit the Titanic Exhibition as part of their class studies.  A great day was had by all.  Many thanks to all the parents who joined us for the trip, we really could not have done it without your help.  The pupils were a real credit to the school.  I am sure we will be back.

Our week ahead is a busy one with Pr. 4 – 7 pupils leaving the school on Thursday for the panto at Motherwell Civic.  Please note the times of departure, arrival and pick up times.
