Week beginning 5th October 2025

Week beginning 5th October 2025

Incredibly, this is our final week of term 1 and the children have settled so well into good learning habits. The children have enjoyed several exciting experiences, including our Mini Vinnie’s gathering food for the food bank, music tuition, sporting events and training, including after school clubs. The list goes on. A huge thank you to our wonderful staff team for facilitating these events. Another important issue is that of attendance and our figures are currently in line with North Lanarkshire Council parameters. We would like to keep it that way. Thank you to our parents and carers for your support with this matter.

All the staff at St Bartholomew’s look forward to welcoming you on Wednesday to Parent’s Evening where you will be able to discuss your child’s progress. Other news includes the school photographer’s visit on the 20th of October where your child’s lovely smile will be captured.

Thank you for your continued support, Deirdre Bolland, Head Teacher.
