This is a friendly appeal, particularly to P7 before you leave us for pastures new, however could technically apply to everyone.

It would be very much appreciated if you could please check at home for any school resources such as novels and sports clothing  – no matter how long you have had them please hand in before the end of term – no judgment will be made.  This would really help us return to full kits for events and replenish some missing books and resources.  Your support is very much appreciated.

Congratulations to our Pr. 4 pupils from Room 9 and 12 who celebrated their First Holy Communion at 10.00am on Sunday.  They were wonderful and were a real credit to the school and their family.  Well done boys and girls.

Well done to the boys and girls who represented the school today at this event. We got through to the semi-final of the top ranking teams and were narrowly defeated by one goal in the final. More importantly we were really well behaved and demonstrated excellent sportsmanship. A credit to the school! 

The PTA ran a most successful and enjoyable Family Race Night on Friday evening. The outstanding sum of £1800 was raised on the night.  Truly Amazing!!  A huge thank you to our wonderful PTA who gave up their time to organise a most entertaining family event.  Next date to put in your diary is Saturday 1st June – Summer Fair

The school will open it’s doors on Thursday afternoon to welcome parents and grandparents to our school community.  Our invited guests are welome to visit classes, join in lessons and experience what life is like in school in 2019.  We look forward to seeing everyone.  Doors open at 1.30pm.
