The P7 pupils returned safely from the London Trip last night.  They had a fantastic time visiting the London Eye, Madame Tussaud’s, Harry Potter Studios and The Tower of London.   They had dinner at the Rainforest Cafe and attended the West End performance of Matilda.

A showcase of learning for pupils from P 1 to P 7 will take place on Monday 27th of March at 7 pm.  Pupils will talk to you about what they have been learning in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics and will tell you about their topic this term.  Please come to the hall for a 7 pm start.  We look forward to sharing our learning with you.

Heavy rain has been forecast for tomorrow around the time we are walking to Church, please send the children to school dressed for the weather.   As it is the Feast of our Patron Saint on Sunday please join us to celebrate Mass.

Well done to our P4/5 and P5 pupils who participated in the recent Handball festivals in the community centre.   They represented the school well and had great fun taking part.

Well done to our dancers!  The girls represented the school at Deans Community High School today and were fantastic.  They looked great in their new dance hoodies.

The Scholastic book fayre will be in the GP room this evening during parental consultations and will be available to pupils tomorrow.  Order forms can be collected at the fayre this evening.
