Our Litter & Waste Eco Group have had a very busy time recently. They have worked very hard and we are very proud of their Anti Litter Policy (click to view) achievements. We launched our Anti-litter Policy at last weeks Assembly and it will be displayed in every classroom and at points around the school.
As you know we are also recycling batteries through the Big Battery Hunt. We have had an amazing reaction already with two buckets already full. Once again, well done the Litter & Waste Group.
The busy Litter & Waste group also took part in a Litter Pick around the school. We collected 5 bags of rubbish from outside the playground! Well done to Nathan, Blair, Jack, Ryan, Heather, Freya, Mhairi and Amira for all their hard work and a big thank you to Mr Hutchison and Mrs Grant for their help.
Could we ask for all cashless payment forms to be completed and returned by Friday 10th May? If you have misplaced your form, please ask at the Office or let your child’s teacher know and we will replace it.
Thank you.

Today at assembly we celebrated becoming a Cycling Friendly School by inviting Team GB athlete Luisa Steele to talk about her journey to elite cycling.
Luisa was raised locally and has volunteered and coached with Active Schools since leaving school in addition to competing for British Cycling’s Women’s Sprint Team . She told us of her journey and experiences and encouraged the pupils to try as many sports as possible.
Becoming a Cycling Friendly School is an achievement we are very proud of. Thank you to Mrs Ferguson, the committee and everyone who has taken part in helping us achieve this award.
Well Done!
The football team lost in an action packed game against Rashielea Primary. Both teams were desperate to win the final game of the league campaign and scored with some fine finishes but it would be Rashielea who took all points after a clinical first half.
Thank you to all the volunteers who make the league possible and give us a great opportunity to make new friends as part of the transition to secondary school.

Your child has been given a form to be completed for the new Cashless system. This system is not just for school meals but for all money paid to the school e.g. school trips, fund raising, bake sales, etc.
Please complete the forms for every child and return ASAP.
Thank you in advance.
Thank you for all of the designs handed in to the office so far. This is a reminder that the entries need to be returned by Thursday 18th April. Unfortunately, we cannot accept any late entries. See below for more information.
Every pupil was given an entry form to design the programme cover for Bishopton Day Programme 2019. The theme this year is ‘Superheroes’. The subject can be anything related to superheroes, it can even be your real life superheroes.
Prizes will be awarded to the winning designs in the following categories:
All wining designs will feature in the Bishopton Day programme and the overall winner will be used for the front cover.
*Your designs should be as bright and bold as possible and please use the entire space provided with your colours going right up to the border. You do not need to include any details like headings or dates, just your fabulous designs!

Well done to our Cross Country team who were fantastic as they raced against the rest of Renfrewshire at the On-X yesterday. We just missed out on a podium finish but are very proud of everyone as we gave it our all and even made friends along the way.

Here is the weblink for the Spring Holiday 2019 programme.
A massive thank you to all of our coaches who kept us fit, active and engaged over term three. We had clubs such as football, mini kickers, judo, dance, athletics, karate, chess and many more.
We will have our schedule for next term ready once we return from the Easter Holidays.
Bishopton Primary School has been given the opportunity to design and create a wee Oor Wullie sculpture by the Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity.
With the competition launched at assembly today (27th March) we would like every pupil to take some time over the holidays or after to create and colour a design for the wee Oor Wullie sculpture.
All pupils completed designs must be submitted to their class teacher by Thursday 18th April.
A winning design from each stage will then be chosen and elements will be incorporated into the finished Bishopton Primary Oor Wullie sculpture.
‘Children must show adventure and use their imaginations to showcase their voice on issues that are important to them.’
The completed Bishopton Primary wee Oor Wullie Sculpture will then be put on display in a public building as part of a trail across Scotland.
In addition, every entry that the school receives will be put into a second Scottish Citylink Oor Wullie Competition where pupils could have the chance to have their own individual design featured on the side of a Citylink coach as it travels throughout the country.
For an overview of the project you can see the launch video: https://vimeo.com/294817943 and Bucket Trail website https://www.oorwullie.com/
Well done to all our stars of the week!
Well done everyone!
Next Thursday afternoon we will have our annual House Quiz. To get into the spirit, we would encourage pupils to wear their House colours (see below) to school. This means it will be a non-uniform day but you should wear something to represent your House colours.
Eagles – yellow
Falcons – Blue
Hawks – Green
Ospreys – Red
The Sustrans Big Pedal challenge will run from Monday 25th March to Friday 29th March.
Children are asked to come to school every day with their bike or scooter. At some point each day they will have the opportunity to get out in the playground and cycle/scoot with their class.
Children must wear a helmet when on their bike/scooter. It would be appreciated if an adult could check over bikes and scooters before children bringing them to school for the first time.
During Big Pedal next week, Mr Neill will be here to advise the children on how to make sure their bikes and scooters are safe.
Find out more information here –https://en-gb.facebook.com/kustomkruizerscic/
We also ask that children cycle/scoot to school (but not in the playground before or after school or on the way home from school).
Please encourage your child to appreciate the safety of pedestrians as well as road users.
Many thanks for your support.
