As part of our Eco School Action Plan the Global Citizenship group are raising money to support the Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity.
Members of the group will be visiting classes to give pupils and teachers the chance to “Guess the Teddy’s Birthday”. This will run from Tues 3rd – Fri 6th December. Whoever guesses the correct date will win the teddy. The cost will be 50p a go and you can have more than one shot if you want!
If you would like to take part please bring the money into school (not ParentPay).
A letter was issued today for your child to choose their Christmas lunch option. We would appreciate if you could complete this slip and return it no later than Wednesday 27 November.
The cost of the lunch is £2.25 for P4-7 pupils and free for P1-3 pupils. Payment is made through Parentpay so if you have not activated your account, please do so as soon as possible.
The options are:
Turkey with trimmings
Steak pie with trimmings
Quorn roast with trimmings (vegetarian option)
All options come with ice cream and milk or water.
If your child’s teacher does not receive a completed form, they will assume they are a packed lunch.
The football team made a dramatic comeback in a 7 goal thriller against Langbank Primary yesterday. The team never gave up against a very good passing team. It was a great game to watch and we wish Langbank all the best in their remaining three games.
Poppies will be on sale from Monday 11th November. Apologies they were so late this year but the box just arrived today. P6 pupils will come around the classes once per day next week looking for a small donation for a poppy.
The latest Renfrewshire Sumdog contest starts at 8am on Friday 8th November and ends at 8pm on Thursday 14th November. Please play as many games as you can to help your class climb the leader board. Have fun and try your best!
We have extended the Christmas card order deadline until midnight tonight. The company will be printing them tomorrow so no late orders can be taken after midnight tonight. Thank you.

Good morning. We have received information on a few occasions this week regarding issues with traffic flow through the village.
The main problems are arising from cars parked too close to the junction of Old Greenock Road and Ferry Road. This makes it very difficult for larger vehicles and the school buses in particular to turn.
On two mornings this week the bus has become ‘stuck’ when trying to turn and the traffic on the surrounding roads has become gridlocked. The situation was only resolved when the parked car was moved.
We fully appreciate that parking is difficult during peak periods but please be mindful of others and only park in places that are unlikely to cause problems for other road users.
A number of parents have signed up to the Parking Pledge and we are grateful of your support in this.
A reminder that the school will be cashless from tomorrow, Thursday 10th October.
If your child uses the milk bar at interval, you must have money in their meals account, this includes P1-3 and other Free Meals. Your child will not be allowed to get into debt on their account for a snack from the milk bar at interval.
Any questions or queries can be answered by the Parent Pay team who will be in school from 8.30am tomorrow. Thank you.
A Parent Pay Team will be available to talk to in school from 8.30am tomorrow. If you have any questions or queries, please drop in to talk to the team who will be happy to help.
Thank you for all the stickers so far. We have completed one poster and are now well on our way to completing our second. The response we have had has been brilliant so far! If you have any more, please send them in.
