The Week Ahead
Please look out for the school newsletter which will be issued at the beginning of the week. It has important information and features school news that informs you of the community life of the school.
This week it is ECO/HEALTH WEEK at St.Augustine’s. There is an action packed week of activities planned for all classes. We hope our children take home our strong Eco message to look after our environment.
Please continue to make the effort during Lent to attend daily Mass at 8.30am. It is great to see so many of our families and young people each morning.
Our after school clubs continue to go from strength to strength. Many thanks to all staff and parents who run these clubs for the benefit of our pupils.
Our Parent Council and P.T.A. will meet on Wednesday evening at 6.00pm. All welcome.
North Lanarkshire Learning Festival takes place on Thursday and Friday of this week with a special invitation extended to all parents to attend the Parent Conference on Thursday evening at Motherwell Civic.
Please encourage your children to start thinking about their egg design for the Egg Challenge (Pr.4 – 7) on Wednesday of next week. Prizes to be awarded for the winners in each class.
Movie Night Fun
Thanks to Mrs.Allison and her Global Citizens the whole school enjoyed a Movie Night on Friday evening to raise money for charity. The school hall was packed with children dressed in onesies settling down for the evening to watch a movie with their friends. We look forward to pupil feedback to see how we could further improve this type of event for the future. Many thanks to the many parents who came along to help supervise on the night. Their support and help was much appreciated.
Easter Fun Day – 24th March
Our Pr.7 pupils from Room 15 have been very busy planning a variety of fun activities for the whole school on Tuesday 24th March. Two of our senior pupils went visiting classes today to inform everyone. We look forward to next week.
Bike Sheds at Last!!
St.Augustine’s is delighted to announce that it will that at last have bike/scooter racks and a bike shed for securely storing bikes. This will hopefully encourage our children to travel to school on their bikes or scooters safe in the knowledge that they have somewhere safe to store them when they arrive at school. As an Eco school we want to promote a healthier lifestyle and encourage all of our children to walk or cycle to school. Here are a few pictures of our Pr.1 pupils who went out to investigate what the workmen were up to today.
Pupil of the Week Awards
Well done to all the marvellous pupils who received the first of our Pupil of the Week Awards. Children were recognised for a variety of achievements across the curriculum and also for demonstrating kindness to others. Keep up the great work boys and girls!
Parent’s Evening
There was excellent turnout of parents for our Parent’s evening on Tuesday. Many thanks to our wonderful PTA members who were on hand to provide tea, coffee and some delicious homebaking for parents and staff. It was much appreciated. Our next Parent’s evening is next Tuesday. I hope to meet more of the wider Parent body and to make my introductions.
Football Festival
Congratulations to the boys and girls who took part in this morning’s football festival. They did a marvellous job representing St.Augustine’s and returned to school very wet but happy with their performances. They were a credit to the school. Unfortunately, we did not capture any pictures of the boys and girls at the football festival so there is no picture gallery that shows off the footballing skills of our talented pupils.
Welcome
Welcome to St. Augustine’s school blog. Please watch out for regular postings that will reflect the community life of the school. There will be regular pictures galleries that will give everyone a chance to see what has happened in school that day. So please remember to check out the website on a regular basis. St.Augustine’s is a busy school and we hope this blog will give all our pupils and parents the opportunity to celebrate the achievement of pupils, classes and the school. We hope the school blog will give you an opportunity to check up on up and coming events.
