Thank You
Thank you to Father Gerry, the wonderful children and staff who made my Retirement Mass so special. The children looked fantastic in formal school uniform and the singing was outstanding – I have never heard them sing so well. I was a very, very proud head teacher.
I was delighted and privileged to have such a wonderful Mass to celebrate my retirement and 40 years in Catholic Education.
My time at St. Patrick’s has been very special.

The General Election Result!
The boys and girls from P3/4 and P4/5 got together today to participate in a mock election. They worked co-operatively in their party groupings to create a name as well as promises for their manifesto. They then designed their party rosette and party name plate.
They listened intently while candidates spoke and enjoyed working with their peers. They then took part in a secret ballot to vote; mirroring what would happen in a real General Election.
After counting and verifying the votes, The Animal Party and The Marshmallow Party were joint winners. Well done children! 🙂

Financial Education Week
Today the children have been given a Homework Challenge as part of our Financial Education Week.
Primary 1, 2 and 3 have to select a snack for Santa and Rudolph according to a set budget, there are lots of tasty treats to choose from but they must work out what they can afford.
Primary 4, 5, 6 and 7 have to plan an imaginary Christmas party for 10 people, providing drinks, food, decorations and entertainment. Some children from Primary 7 visited 6 local shops on Friday and they have agreed to assist us in our challenge, so pupils with adult supervision, can visit Scotmid, Morrisons the Butchers, Tesco Express, Lidl, Greggs or Farmfoods to price our party supplies for the homework challenge. (Please try and avoid going at peak times if possible.)
Both homework challenges should be returned by Monday 16th December and the best use of budgets for each class , will be awarded a prize,
Good luck everyone!
