We will keep you posted regarding important dates for your diary, including Christmas Nativity plays, Christmas concerts, Christmas lunch, Pantomime etc.

Week beginning 5^th 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 20^{th of} October where your child’s lovely smile will be captured.

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

The week ahead looks like this…

Welcome back after the September weekend and I hope that all our families, staff and wider community enjoyed a lovely relaxing break. Parent’s evening will be upon us soon and please ensure that you have made an appointment with your child’s teacher to hear all the wonderful things that your child is learning about. We all look forward to seeing you soon.
