A big thank you Allstate for their cyber safety workshop with our Primary 5s and LSC3 and 4  classes today. They delivered a great message on Stop, Think, Tell. The children learnt how to stay safe online, thinking about:

•Friend or Pretend

•Screen out the mean

•Beware what you share

Through the presentation and games the children increased their awareness of online safety and received a brilliant goodie bag at the end! A great session!

Parents, you can chat with your child about what they learnt today by clicking on this link :

What a day we had today! Key Stage 2 were treated to a brilliant Assembly by P5MML and P5LMA. Mrs Mc Laughlin’s class and Miss Hughes class delivered very important messages about online safety. The P5-P7 children learnt all about how to stay super SMART on the internet. Well done Primary 5!

The Digital Leaders introduced themselves at the end and told us about what they do. eSafetysaurus enjoyed dancing with the catchy P5 safety song!

Halloween dress up day will be on Friday 25th October.

School will close that day at the usual time for a week. We will be open again on Monday 4th November. Have a lovely break.

Well done to our brilliant Primary 3s this morning for their fabulous assembly! P3BH and P3CMC treated us to our own lovely Holy Trinity Bake Off, with their special ingredients for learning this year! We then had a surprise visit from our 12 new Digital Leaders and eSafetysaurus to tell us about our October eSafety Code- Beware What you Share. Well done boys and girls!

Last year, parents had asked about the possibility of a morning club similar to the one operating in St Martin’s. We will operate a morning club from 8.30 for pupils in P1-P4. This will be supervised by classroom assistants and there will be a weekly fee the same as St Martin’s. This will begin on the 30th September and you will receive more information later in the month.

This year Mr White will be sending out information about parent courses. If you are interested in attending, or if you have any suggestions please contact Mr White. We hope to continue to work in partnership with our parents.
