A fond farewell from Mr Todd
The time has come to say goodbye to the wonderful community of Bellsquarry Primary School. It has been a true joy and privilege to work with the children, staff, parents and partners of Bellsquarry over the last few years and I am overwhelmed by the cards, gifts and messages of support from everyone associated with the school. A heartfelt thank you to you all.
Leaving this wonderful school was a really difficult decision, but as I will still be working within the James Young High School Cluster it means I haven’t entirely left the Bellsquarry family – something which gives me some solace as I move on. I wish everyone well in their own journeys, wherever they may take you.
Good luck for the future, and thank you all.

We had a fantastic time on our trip yesterday! We learned lots about the lifecycle of a butterfly and many other animals like snakes, millipedes, spiders and stick insects. Thank you to Kev and the ButterflyWorld team for such a brilliant tour!

P7 enjoy lunch at Pizza Express
Primary 7 went to Pizza Express for a treat!
We enjoyed garlic dough balls, pizza, pasta and chocolate brownie! We even wore hats which we decorated with stickers.
It was great to be out with our friends before we head off to James Young after the summer.
