It’s been great to have the Book Fair in school this week. Primary 7 enjoyed looking through the new books and placing orders for some new reading material.

Tesco Bags of Help Grant Scheme – Coming Soon!
We are delighted to let you know our bid for the Tesco Bags of Help Grant Scheme has been successful and our project will be put forward to a customer vote in Tesco Stores during April, May and June 2020. We applied to this scheme to help develop our outdoor area to provide a stimulating and dynamic area for our children to enhance their health and wellbeing.

Our project, along with two others in our region will go forward to vote in Tesco stores where customers will decide the outcome by voting for their favourite project each time they shop. Voting will take place from Wednesday 1st April 2020 until Tuesday 30th June 2020. The project with the highest number of votes will receive £2,000, second place £1,000 and third placed project £500. We will find out in July the amount we will receive.
We hope you will support us on this project and will issue reminders nearer the time. Thanks in anticipation of your support.
Lent Newsletter from SCES
Please find attached a newsletter for families issued by the Scottish Catholic Education Service with some important advice of how to prepare as a family for Lent.
Credit Union Recruitment
Huge thanks to those pupils who save regularly with our Credit Union. Your support is fantastic and we love seeing you each week as you save up for those important things you desire.
We have over 50 savers currently but would love to have more. If you are interested in saving with us please let us know and we can give you a form to join. Remember a small amount over time makes all the difference.
P7 will visit classes to remind pupils that they can join anytime and to answer any queries anyone has.
Confirmation Admin
We have been asked to confirm to the parish certain administrative information before P6 and 7 pupils are confirmed, most of which we are able to do by speaking to the children. One query we have is the parish of baptism so would ask that P6 and 7 pupils know this information so that they can tell their teacher next week.
Thank you for your continued support whilst we journey towards this sacrament.
Compliments in Primary 7
These two young ladies received compliments from their classmates today as part of our learning around mental health. They were described as having a heart full of kindness and the joy everyone needs in their life. Wow! Well done girls, you are clearly loved by your friends.
P4-7 Disco
Huge thanks to our fabulous PTA for putting another great disco this evening. Boys and girls you looked fabulous and looked like you had a great time.
Primary 7 Yearbook
Work is underway to compile a yearbook for the Primary 7 classes. Pupils will be issued with a letter on Monday that asks they bring in 3 photographs ideally group shots that include a few other P7 pupils, one from early years/starting school and some that provide some light entertainment. We will include photographs from sporting events we already hold and of course Kilbowie.
You will appreciate this is a very time consuming task and in this regard your support would be very much appreciated, therefore early submission of photographs would help. Original photographs will be returned.
In order to proceed with the preparation of the yearbook it will be assumed you give consent for your child’s photographs to be included unless you state otherwise in writing.
Thank you in advance for your support.
