Y3/4 FOOTBALL MATCH 

 

Well done to the team and Mr. Roddy.  They beat St. Mary’s 10 – Nil last Friday.

 

SCHOOL FAMILY AND INDIVIDUAL PHOTOGRAPHS  

 

The proofs have been sent home this week.  Please send your order to the office by Friday 31 March as this is when the photographer will call to collect the orders.

 

JUNIOR ‘FRUITY’ MORNING PLAYTIMES 

 

As part of the school’s promotion of healthy eating I would be grateful if juniors could eat fruit/carrots during morning break following the Easter holiday, (just like the infants).  Crisps can be saved for lunchtime.

 

HEALTHY ALTERNATIVE TO CAKE SALES 

 

The Y1 class will be making and selling real fruit sundaes during morning break on Wednesday 29 March.  The charge is 70p.  Y1 did this last year – it was well received.  Proceeds will be donated to the charity ‘CRY,’ (Cardiac Risk in the Young).

 

GIRLS’ UNIFORM 

 

Please remember that the school’s uniform code stipulates that girls are not to wear trousers between Easter and October half-term.

 

EASTER ACTIVITIES – Thursday 30 and Friday 31 March 

 

During the last two days of term the whole school concentrates on Easter activities culminating in a celebration on the Friday at 2.30pm.  (ALL WELCOME).  All the ages are mixed together and visit each teacher in turn.  CHILDREN ARE ALLOWED TO WEAR MUFTI DURING THESE TWO DAYS.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Mr. A. C. Agnew.

Headteacher.
