St. Patrick's Primary, New Stevenston

New class photographers were delivered to school this afternoon – they are now on display in the main foyer of the school.

All of the children had great fun at the parade this afternoon. They enjoyed taking part in fun activities in class. The costumes were fabulous.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Congratulations to the winner of the Cinema Raffle

A big “THANK YOU” to the Parent Fundraising Group for donating the Halloween prizes and for organising the Parent’s Evening Raffle.

£184 has been donated to the school funds – this will help to pay the buses to the pantomime.

Thank you to all parents and children for your continued support.

Congratulations and well done!

All children will attend Mass at St John Bosco’s Church at 11:00am tomorrow (Thursday 1st November).

Primary 5 have prepared and will deliver the liturgy.

Everyone is welcome!

Come along and celebrate the great feast with your children.

Children going home at lunchtime to change for Halloween Fun Activities can be picked up from the gate at 12:30pm. They should be returned to school by 1:15pm.

Weather permitting the children will parade from the school gate around the front of the building, return to class via the main entrance for fun Halloween activities.

Thank you to everyone who purchased Halloween Raffle Tickets and Cinema Raffle Tickets at parents evenings. Raffles will be drawn in school this afternoon.

Look out for pictures on the blog later today…

Mr Gault our janitor for the past 6 years retired this morning. He has served as a janitor in schools in various locations in North Lanarkshire for the past 25 years.

He tried to disappear without telling anyone – we did get him to come to the bases to say farewell.

We wish him every happiness as he reaches this next stage in his life’s journey.

Mr Gault we will miss you…

We all wish you a happy, healthy and long retirement.
