Just a reminder that children should come to school dressed in their sports kit tomorrow for Sport Relief. They can be as creative as they like! Cost will be £1 each which will be donated to Sport Relief.
Sport Relief is running from 17th March – 23rd March this year! We will be participating every day next week and “getting our kit on” for Friday 23rd March.

We are keen to support Children In Need this year however we thought we’d have a fundraising day with a difference!
Children can come to school dressed “funny for Friday” and instead of bringing money they can bring in a donation to the Christmas Fayre for our raffle or tombola. We will, in turn, make a donation on behalf of the school to Children In Need from money raised at the Christmas Fayre!
We hope you will continue to support us in our fundraising efforts for children less fortunate than us.
Cumbernauld and Kilsyth School Uniform Bank are organising a series of local school uniform exchange events. The first one will be held in Abronhill. This will take place on Saturday 18th November from 11.00am – 1.00pm at St Lucy’s Church Hall.
Parents and carers will be able to exchange uniform they no longer need, for uniform that their children do need. The event is entirely free and uniform can be exchanged free of charge. If you have nothing to exchange you can select a few items (with optional small donation). The purpose of this event is to recycle good quality pre-loved uniform and provide access to low cost/free uniform for as many families as possible.
They will have stock from schools in the area, as well as secondary schools young people in Abronhill attend – plus any schools requested. They will be bringing uniform from the following schools:
Abronhill Primary School
St Lucy’s Primary School
Whitelees Primary School
Carbrain Primary School
Cumbernauld Academy
Greenfaulds High School
Our Lady’s High School

We had some special visitors to our weekly assembly today. Pupils from Cumbernauld Academy came along to showcase their Summer Show Oliver! They were fantastic!
We had an amazing “It’s Good To Be Me!” pupil this week. Maya brought in her five……yes five Irish dancing trophies to show us. Well done Maya!
Kenzie, Tyler and John showed off their IDL certificates, well done boys you have been working very hard!
James, Adam and Kerr were commended for alerting the police to a fire whilst they were out beating the street. Well done boys, wonderful community spirit!
Niamh and Alesha were commended on their fundraising. They made and sold loom bands and gave all their profits to our Go Yellow day for Strathcarron Hospice. They raised an incredible £17.20, well done girls!
Thank you to everyone who embraced our Go Yellow Day, it was lovely to see a sea of yellow at assembly this morning!
On Friday 2nd June, Whitelees Primary School will be going yellow to support our business partners Strathcarron Hospice – “Go YellowDay”. We would ask that everyone either wears or brings something yellow to school on that day. We will also be collecting a £1 donation for the charity from all those who wish to participate. The work of Strathcarron Hospice is extremely important and we thank you in advance for your support in helping us fundraise for our business partners.
