Rag Bag Collection – Uplift Wednesday 6th November
Our Eco Committee have issued all pupils with a Rag Bag today as part of our raising awareness of Textile Recycling. By participating we help the environment as well as raise funds for the school. When returned Textiles are sorted and exported to Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe providing good quality second hand clothing.
We would appreciate if everyone could support this project and when ready your donations can be handed in anytime before 6th November.
Thanks as always for your support.
Compliments in P7
This young man received compliments from his classmates today as part of our mental health awareness. It was a delight to witness the lovely comments he received. He was described as one of the best friends you will ever have in life…….. what an outstanding compliment.
Assembly Award Winners
Congratulations to this weeks assembly award winners recognised st our assembly this morning.
Be Internet Legends Assembly
P4-7 attended an interactive assembly this morning with some very special guests. We were very lucky to work with Google Be Internet Legends.
During our session we learned about the importance of staying safe online and how to keep our information secure. We learned what phishing means and also about over sharing, particularly how quickly information is shared online.
We hope the boys and girls shared their knowledge you.

Just a quick reminder for P6 or 7 children interested in Gaelic football. Joe Bradley runs training on a Monday night 5pm – 6.15pm at Dunbeth Park and Tuesday 5pm – 6.15pm at St Ambrose. Please go along and give it a go!
New House Captains
Congratulations to our new House Captains who are now in position and will carry out their duties from now until January. We wish them great confidence and success as they carry out their role within the school.
Whilst congratulating our House Captains we cannot ignore the pupils who also put themselves forward for election. It was a delight to witness you putting yourselves forward. You should be immensely proud of yourselves for showing great bravery, confidence and professionalism. Whilst you may have been unsuccessful this time we are certain you will try again in January.
End of Month Assembly
On Friday we held our first end of month assembly of the new school year hosted by our fantastic new House Captains. We welcomed our new P1 children and congratulated them on an amazing start to life at St Augustine’s Primary School. They really are superstars!
We celebrated our wonderful maths stars, artists of the month and writers of the month – well done to everyone who received an award.
We shared upcoming events and agreed as school that in order to achieve our Silver award for being a Rights Respecting School we need to show each other RESPECT. Our mission ongoing is to try our best to show respect to each other. We are going to make sure we don’t leave anyone out of games and treat others as we would like to be treated ourselves.
Credit Union Collection
Our Credit Union collection will take place on Friday at 9.15am.
If any P1 children would like to join please bring in your applications. P7 will come to classes as normal to collect forms and deposits.
Thank you for supporting the children whilst they operate this on our behalf.
