St Bartholomews

Our boys and girls have had another fabulous week in St Bart’s. The children thoroughly enjoyed a variety of after school clubs and other sporting   events this week. We are so lucky to have as many activities as we do on offer!

P1/2 and P2/3 have been working hard, learning about our community as part of interdisciplinary learning. As you know, the children have been collecting a variety of tinned food stuff to donate to the local food bank. They all thoroughly enjoyed their visit and were made very welcome by Pastor Stuart.  Thank you so much for all your kind donations, they are much appreciated.

Our Christmas Fayre on Saturday was a fabulous success due to hard work from our wonderful Parent Council and very kind donations from our fabulous parent community. Santa and his fantastic elf were very impressed with the wonderful manners demonstrated by our boys and girls and our equally wonderful Carol singers and musician on stage. They were outstanding! We will keep you posted on a final total of monies made after the Christmas Concert when remaining raffle tickets will be on sale. Thank you again for your continued generosity.

Kind regards,

Deirdre Bolland

• preparing for a new baby
• basic needs for a baby
• keeping babies healthy, safe and happy

The children are putting together a baby layette and are asking for baby things to be put into it. The layette will then be given to the innocent society who provide support for families.

Pastor Stuart visited our school, during Wednesday afternoons’ assembly to tell all of our boys and girls how it works and how they could help. If you could support with this, it would be greatly appreciated and please feel free to contribute any donations that you can. Thank you in advance.

Christmas is fast approaching and as such we are organising a Christmas Fayre on Saturday the 23^rd of November. We would kindly ask that you help support the school with providing donations for our popular hampers – your child’s class teacher will be in touch with this. We will also be organising bottle stalls, Bric a brac – a great excuse to do a clear out just in time for new toys from Santa to fill the space… This will be a fun packed event with lots of outside vendors selling fabulous gifts for Christmas. We will keep you posted!
