Today Brian from SRUC was kind enough to bring in two very special visitors from his home farm. We were introduced to Abbie and Jethro, his seven week old lambs.
They were wonderful guests (they even brought their own milk) and we would welcome them back anytime!
Thank you Brian!
In amongst all of this excitement we also welcomed a new addition to our playground family.
Oystercatcher birds knew that Whitelees was such a safe and welcoming environment that they chose to create a nest in our playground and one of the eggs hatched today.
We used binoculars to check up on the little one’s progress, and were hugely entertained by it’s antics. It’s poor parents have their work cut out, as the new bird kept running around to explore and it’s parents had to try to keep up!
Thank you to everyone who came along to help refresh our Outdoor Learning area and playground. Pupils are already enjoying the newly painted and planted items.
Our anniversary tree to celebrate the school turning 40 years old this year.
Special thanks for donations from McConechy’s Tyre & Auto Centre, RG Tyres Cumbernauld, Brian Millar of SRUC, Spaceright, our Parent Council, staff, pupils and families for plants, roofing felt, tools and most of all your time, effort and hard work.
Thank you to everyone who cleared out cupboards and drawers. We have collected 34 bags of clothes. Hopefully this will give the school some much needed funds.
Please continue to recycle old and unwanted clothes. Can we ask that you place your tied bags in the large recycling bin in the school car park?
