A great day was had by all on the Assualt Course on Friday. Thank to Richard Harris, our Active Schools Co-ordinator for helping to facilitate this.

Mid Term Newsletter
Dear Parents/Carers,
VISIT TO CARFIN – Thursday 27th September
As Saturday is the Feast of St. Michael, the whole school will visit Carfin Shrine on Thursday, where we will celebrate Mass, visit the grounds and share a picnic together. All pupils should wear full school uniform. Please see previous e-mail should you require a lunch supplied by the school.
If you are able to help please indicate on the permission slip or via your child’s diary. If you haven’t already done so please return your child’s permission slip.
SPONSORED ASSAULT COURSE – Friday 28th September
To continue our celebrations on Friday we will hold our Annual Sponsored Assault Course. All pupils may attend school wearing school P.E. kit with sportswear. No football colours please.
Please send in your child with a water bottle. Any sponsor money can be sent in over the course of this week, one sheet per family.
STAFF CAR PARK
We would ask in the interest of health and safety that parents do not use the staff car park to drop off or pick up, particularly more so at present due to the renovation work that is being carried out in the school.
PARENTS NIGHT
Please see the previous e-mail regarding selecting an appointment time for your child. Unfortunately due to renovation work parents will not be able to visit their child’s classroom at this time. There will be an opportunity to do so later in the year when the rewiring is fully completed.

St Michael’s Feast Day
St. Michael’s Feast Day Mass
We are delighted that this year we will celebrate St. Michael’s Feast Day Mass at Carfin Grotto on 27th September. This is to coincide with the Anniversary of 100 years of Catholic Education.
We will depart from school at approximately 10am, this will allow time for the children to enjoy the grounds at Carfin for Holy Mass and for all to enjoy a picnic lunch.
We are sure this will be a great celebration and we are grateful to Father Michael for his organisation.
Please provide your child with a packed lunch on this day unless your child is in P1-3 or in P4-7 and receives a free school meal.
School Photographs
School Photographs
The photographers will be in the school on Monday 8th October 2018.
All children in School and Nursery will have individual photographs taken this year.
You may request a family portrait to be taken, however, this will only be done if you select the option below. If you do not select this option by Friday 5th October then we will assume that you do not require a family photograph to be taken.
If you have a child who does not attend St. Michael’s School or Nursery you may bring them into the school between 8.30 a.m. and 9 a.m. to have a family picture taken before the older children begin their school day. Children who attend the nursery in the afternoon will also have an opportunity to have their photographs taken from 1 p.m.
Children wearing glasses are asked to move them further down their nose than normal to prevent the flash showing in the photograph. Should you decide that you would prefer them to remove their glasses please tell your child to do so on the day.
Yours sincerely
Mrs. Karen Greechan
