    Many thanks to those who responded to our appeal for engineers to come to the school and speak with the children. We had a fantastic morning yesterday; the children thoroughly enjoyed listening to our four guest speakers.

    Hopefully  they have inspired many engineers for the future!

    Chemical Engineering: Mr Dungavell

    Power Systems: Mr Ilomuanya

    Network Rail: Mr O’Lone

    Radar and Electronics: Mr Shaw

     

    Many thanks to Mr Dungavell, Mr Ilomuanya, Mr O’Lone and Mr Shaw (whom you might recognize as a formal pupil).

    Evan said that he loved playing with Lego in Primary 1 and that he knew even then that he wanted to be involved in this industry.

    Applications open for fuel hardship payment

    Fuel hardship payment

    Low-income households in North Lanarkshire can apply for our £150 fuel hardship payment.

    The payment is aimed at residents on a low income but earning too much to be eligible for any other cost of living financial assistance provided by the Scottish or UK governments.

    Details of income thresholds and how to apply are available at www.northlanarkshire.gov.uk/fuelpayment

    The deadline for applications is 3 December at 5.00pm.

    “We know that many people are worried about rising energy bills, so we are allocating £2.161 million to offer a one-off payment to households on a low income,” said Councillor Paul Kelly, Depute Council Leader.

    “This is part of our eight-point cost of living action plan to help support residents who are trying to cope with spiralling living costs by providing a cash boost towards household bills.

    “As part of the application process, we will also offer free support and assistance on benefits, debt and budgeting advice, and advice on staying warm while reducing energy costs.”

    Information is also available at www.northlanarkshire.gov.uk/benefits-and-money/cost-living-help.

    Payments to successful applicants will begin at the end of October and will be made in the order that applications have been received.
