Good Morning everyone,
I hope that you have had a very good week so far and I’m sure that you are all looking forward to the weekend!
It has been great to see more of your work so please, keep sending it in. In fact I have enjoyed looking at your work so much I think that you should treat yourselves to a little extra Golden Time today!
First Holy Communion
On Sunday we should have been celebrating First Holy Communion with the Primary 4 children, their families, Fr Campbell and all of our staff. Unfortunately this has had to be postponed leaving everyone very disappointed.
Why not log on to St. Barbara’s Parish website and follow us on Twitter to see a special message this weekend. Please remember all of the children and their families in your thoughts and prayers at this special time.
Virtual Sports…are you up for the challenge?
On Tuesday 26th May we are going to celebrate Sports’ Day with a whole school day of activities and fun for all of the family!
There will be an action-packed grid full of sporty tasks which you can do from home – inside and out.
Look out for further information next week and remember to take lots of pictures!
It has ARRIVED!! The NLC SUMDOG Challenge begins today!
Please log on and do your very best today and through all of next week. Good luck!
P. 7 Transition
Updated information from OLHS was uploaded onto Twitter earlier in the week. The transition process is continuing between staff in St. Barbara’s and the high school.
I emailed a letter to parents of children intending to go to Chryston High on Wednesday. Can you please check that you have received this and let me know of any issues?
Feast of the Ascension: Thursday 21st May
Under normal circumstances all of the children would have been attending Mass next Thursday for the Feast of the Ascension. As this won’t be possible, Bishop Toal will be celebrating Mass on Thursday online at 11am for all of the school children in the Diocese. I will issue the link next week.
So just before the weekend begins, let’s take a few moments to remember all of our fabulous NHS staff, all of the keyworkers, all of our wonderful staff, all of your parents and the adults who have been supporting you at home this week. We’ll also think about Fr. Campbell who has been saying Mass every day and remembering all of us in his prayers.
We remember most especially the children in Primary 4 who would have received the Sacrament of First Holy Communion on Sunday – and all of their friends in class who were supporting them.
Let’s not forget about all of you – our fantastic children – who have been working so hard again this week! Well done all of you!
We ask God to bless each and every one of us today and to look after us all this weekend. Together, let’s say a Hail Mary in English or in Spanish, you choose…
I hope that you all have a relaxing weekend.
Mrs McKinney
