St Catherine’s Primary # 2021
What a fantastic afternoon with St Mirren legend and author Tony Fitzpatrick, Skoobmobile staff, Renfrewshire Council’s 2012 team and Primary 3. The children enjoyed putting forward their ideas for Paisley’s bid and being read from Tony Fitzpatrick’s children’s book, ‘The Promise.’

This term we are enjoying our new outdoor classroom and taking our learning outdoors. We are very busy planting and making the most of the nice weather. We discussed how we are going to spend our new funding from the Tesco Bags of Help Campaign at assembly this week and everyone is very excited to have a new and improved playground very soon!

Tesco Bags of Help
We won!!
Following the ‘Bags of Help’ public vote in the local Tesco Stores our project ‘Fit and Fun’ came first and has been chosen by Tesco customers to receive a £12,000 grant. We are absolutely delighted to have been awarded this grant. The money received has been earmarked for projects that will improve outdoor learning and play for our children through funding improvements in the playground and developing the Nursery Secret Garden. Sincere thanks to Mrs Henry who worked with Mr McKay and the children of the Playground Games Committee to put together the winning project. Thank you also to those who voted for our project.
