Thank you to our wonderful PTA for organising and running the Summer Fair on Saturday. We raised a fantastic £1575! Well done everyone!
Gaelic Football Finals
Two of our teams took part in the first of the Gaelic Finals last week at St Ambrose against many other schools in the area.
Despite the weather we did exceptionally well with both our teams getting to play-offs. Mrs Drummond said we were amazing and that we should be super proud of our efforts.
Careers Fair
Our Careers Fair last week was a great success, very much enjoyed by all in attendance. We heard from many local businesses about their line of work, any specific training required to do certain jobs and how sometimes the job you plan to do is not the one you end up doing. We learned how many skills you can develop in life are transferable. Thank you for coming to work with us.
York Medication
Thank you to those who have collected Medication for anyone who went to York. We still have many at the office awaiting collection.
If you are happy for your child to bring home please ask them to come and collect it ASAP.
York – Medication
Medication for anyone who went to York is now available at the office for collection. If you are happy for your child to bring home please ask them to come and collect it ASAP.
Foodbank Appeal
Over the next few weeks P7 will organise and collect support for this appeal. If you have anything you would like to donate please hand in anytime/give to your child. P7’s will visit classes on a Friday and collect any donations. Thanks in advance of your support.
Wear It Yellow Walk
Primary 7 pupils were issued with a letter today reminding them they are going to the Wear Yellow Walk on 5th June (next Wed). This letter asks that the children bring a packed lunch that day or order a snack to go as they will be away for most of the day.
Pupils have been asked to obtain sponsorship from family and friends for this event to raise funds for St Andrews Hospice therefore your support in this regard would be very much appreciated.
If you are able to assist at this event please let us know.
Wider Achievement
We love sharing news about Wider Achievement so are delighted to share with you the news that this young lady competed for Scotland in a British National Gymnastics Competition at the weekend.
We are so proud to let you know that she did amazingly well as she finished as the top Scottish Gymnast in the event and was 2nd of all the gymnasts competing from across the UK in one of the disciplines. Absolutely fantastic! We can’t wait to congratulate her at our assembly tomorrow.
Summer Fair
Wear it Yellow Walk
Our primary 7 children will take part in the 6k Wear it Yellow Walk at Strathclyde Park on 5th June.
This is a great day organised by St Andrews Hospice each year for Primary 7’s where they meet children from all over the authority, usually bumping into friends they have made at their high school transition days.
By taking part we therefore look to support the hospice by way of sponsorship for this event. Our P7s were recently issued with sponsorship forms and are encouraged to return these before the event. Any sponsor monies can also be handed in before and after the event.
Thank you for supporting the children in this activity.
