Primary 7 enjoyed their visit from Coatbridge Fire Brigade on the importance of keeping safe on Firework Night. We learned how busy the service is during what is a fun time for us and how we should keep each other safe.
Box Soccer Sessions
Our Box Soccer session this week was a great way to demonstrate what we have learned over the last few weeks on working together in a team. We have developed team spirit, competitiveness and helped our classmates develop their skills.
P7 Scotrail Safety Drama Workshop
Primary 7 worked with Kat from Scotrail this week on the important subject of keeping safe around railway lines.
NLC Firework Display
The Fire Brigade visited the school today to carry out a presentation with Pr.6 and 7 pupils in regard of the danger of fireworks. Please note North Lanarkshire Council will host a number of free displays next week. On Monday the annual display will take place in Drumpellier Country Park (previously this was held at Dunbeth Park). The event starts from 6.30pm with bonfire being lit at 7.15pm and firework display at 8.00pm.
Please note that for Drumpellier Country Park, parking is available at St Ambrose High School and Lochview Golf Centre. There is limited parking within Drumpellier Country Park, including disabled parking, and the car park there will close at 6:30pm. NLC would encourage people to bring a torch and wear reflective clothing as some areas are not lit. Parking restrictions will be in place on Townhead Road and Gartcosh Road.

What’s on this Week?
Many thanks to the PTA who did a marvellous job organising the Halloween disco. It was a great success. A huge thank you is extended to PTA members and parent helpers for giving up their time along with school staff (who also give up their own time) to organise and supervise the event. Many thanks to all parents for your patience while waiting to pick up your child. We had a lot of children and have to ensure each child is collected safely and that everyone leaves the building in an orderly manner. Thank you for your understanding.
