St Bartholomews

Week beginning 24^th March 2025.

A huge thank you for all the support from parents/ carers in terms of contributing towards and engaging with our fun fund-raising activities for Lent. As you know we always raise money for Lenten charities every year as part of alms giving. Your support is so much appreciated. The children have had great fun wearing odd shoes,  something green and crazy hair, to name but a few. Food bank contributions have also been coming in thick and fast and this is such a worthwhile cause. Thank you to Mrs Carlin for organising this and for all your contributions. Your help and contributions will support so many people.

School trips are coming up with our infant department visiting Edinburgh and P4 visiting Vikingar in Largs. I know the children will have a fabulous time. The weather is looking good so even better.

As a school community, we look forward to welcoming everyone on Thursday, after school, and to catching up with parents and carers then. If you have not done so, please make an appointment to see your child’s teacher to hear all the wonderful things that they have been doing. Our book fayre will also be available next week to coincide with parents evening – please look when you are in! The week ahead looks like this:

Week beginning 17^th March 2025. Happy St Patrick’s Day!

Wear something green for St Patrick’s day! – bring an item for our local foodbank, if you can. Thank you in advance.

Our senior pupils thoroughly enjoyed their trip to St Ambrose on Friday morning and achieved wonderful success in the Netball tournament – they came first!

A reminder that the appointments portal will open at 7pm tonight (14^th March) to make parent’s evening appointments for Thursday 27^th March. We look forward to welcoming you then.

Our boys and girls have had another great week at St Bart’s with lots of entries to our ‘Wall of Inspiration’. Some of these successes can be extended with our variety of after school clubs on offer this term and other sporting opportunities throughout. We are so lucky to have as many activities as we do on offer!

The week ahead looks like this:

Our after school club took part in the netball festival at the high school. They children were coached by the High school Sports Leaders and they joined the other schools in the cluster to show off their skills. The children really enjoyed themselves.

Congratulations to this weeks Winning House.

The parent council organised pancakes for all the children to celebrate Pancake Tuesday. The parents used their cooking skills to make delicious pancakes with lovely toppings. Thank you  to all the adults who came to help.
The children enjoyed them very much.
