Huge congratulations to our boys and girls from Primary 4 who received the sacrament of First Holy Communion yesterday at St Bartholomew’s Church. This was the first of two groups of children who will receive the Eucharist, the second of which, will celebrate their First Holy Communion on Sunday. Our entire parish community were gathered to share in this very special sacrament. The boys and girls looked radiant and sang beautifully. They were a credit to themselves, families and the school. Well done boys and girls!

Our Primary 7 pupils arrived safe and sound on Friday, after their adventure in York. Mums and dads reported that they had some very tired boys and girls on Friday night and were very glad to be reunited with their little darlings.

Some of our Primary 7 boys and girls will be visiting St Ambrose High School today, representing St Bartholomew’s Gaelic football team. We wish you all the very best of luck.

Finally, a wee reminder to Primary 1 and Primary 2 parents that our Cheerleading after school club takes place this afternoon. Your support with providing the children with appropriate kits and water bottles is very much appreciated. Thank you.

Mrs Bolland
