Yesterday was Sea Sunday,when we had the opportunity to remember and pray for seafarers, their families and all who support them. The charity that serves this group is called The Apostleship  of the sea and one of its representatives is Ewan MacArthur, has previously visited our school .Ewan was speaking at my own Parish,St Joseph’s in Stepps, to share information about their good work during Sunday mass. It is always nice to see a familiar face and we will no doubt be seeing Ewan again.Please keep seafarers and their families in your prayers. This is particularly appropriate at this time of year,as the patron of this charity is Our Lady, who we especially pray to and ask for her intercession in the month of May.

Rebecca and Melissa from Primary 7 will be representing St Bartholomew’s at a Pupil Council conference in Airdrie this morning. Mrs Dolan will be escorting the girls and is very much looking forward to hearing about how other schools represent pupil voice.

A reminder that Cheerleading after school club is on today- please remember to pack kits etc.I am sure that the children will thoroughly enjoy this energetic activity!
