Our House Captains were hard at work on Friday morning with our whole school monthly assembly. They id a fine job of informing everyone of the life of the school and pupil achievements. Many thanks to Mrs.Drummond and our Pr. 7 stars who informed the school about Peer Mediation and how it will help everyone to reflect on their actions and promote a more harmonious school. Well done boys and girls. House Winners were announced for October. Congratulations to Summerlee!!

PINK LADIES NIGHT

School Meals Week
Please note the changes to the menu for this week as new items are added to the menu to celebrate Scottish School Meals Week.
For every two promotional school meals sold on these days, Unilever will donate one meal to children in Kenya. This provides a great opportunity for the children of North Lanarkshire to support others, while at the same time enjoying the tasty school meals we have to offer.
Facility Support intends to recognise the school with the highest sales and therefore the most meals to the children of Kenya!
