Blair Drummond Safari Park
This is a reminder that final payment for Blair Drummond is due by Friday 9th June. The cost of the trip is £9.50 and can be paid directly at the school office, on ipay (our online payment system) and also in instalments directly to your child’s class teacher.
The cost of the trip is already heavily subsidised by both the school and the PTA and as such we require all monies to be paid in full by the noted date. Please contact the school should there be any difficulty in making payment by the noted date.

Sarah Cannon Kindness Award
Congratulations to the Primary 7 pupils who received the Sarah Cannon Kindness Award in memory of our lovely colleague and friend who passed away 6 months ago. Huge thanks to Mrs Cannon’s children for presenting the award.
Leavers Mass
Congratulations to our Primary 7 pupils who were awarded their Pope Francis Faith Awards at their recent Leavers Mass celebrated by Fr Kane.
Pupils were joined by family and friends to receive their end of year awards, high school ties and yearbook. It was a lovely service that also celebrated the retirement of Mrs Fraser who has been part of our team for 23 years. We wish her a long, happy and healthy retirement.

Please see below a message shared by our PTA :-
We have kindly had all the below items donated and we thought they would make great little summer ready hampers.

today – 20p per ticket/£1 a strip. Please send CORRECT CHANGE as we cannot provide change.
You can also purchase raffle tickets by sending the PTA Facebook page a private message.
The raffle will be drawn next week before the end of term. Don’t worry if your child is not going to be in the last few days of term, if they are drawn as the winner we will arrange for your prize to be delivered to your home. Or you can collect from PTA HQ.
A special thank you to Jill Heart Style for her kind donation of candles and gift cards.
