End of Term Message

A Message from Mrs Ferguson – Headteacher
Today’s Harvest Church Festival was a truly special occasion, and I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to all the parents, staff, and pupils who joined us. Your presence and support made the event feel warm, joyful, and deeply meaningful.
I’d like to give a special mention to Mrs Duignan and our wonderful Primary 4 pupils, who led the service with confidence and care. Their contributions were thoughtful and beautifully delivered.
I’m also incredibly grateful to all the families who donated to Kate’s Kitchen. Your generosity will go a long way in supporting those in need within our community.
As we head into the October break, I wish you all a restful and happy holiday. I look forward to welcoming everyone back in two weeks, refreshed and ready for the term ahead.
Best wishes, Mrs Ferguson

Tag Rugby

Tag Rugby Festival Report – Tuesday 7th October
On Tuesday 7th October, pupils from our Primary 6 and 7 classes participated in the annual Tag Rugby Festival. Despite the wet and windy weather, the children showed great enthusiasm and resilience, teaming up with pupils from other schools to enjoy a day of sport and camaraderie.
The event provided a fantastic opportunity for our pupils to develop their rugby skills, make new friends, and experience the excitement of competitive play in a supportive environment. Their teamwork, energy, and positive attitude were a credit to our school.
A heartfelt thank you goes to Nicole Jancey for her dedication and excellent coaching throughout Term One. Her guidance and encouragement played a key role in preparing the pupils for the festival and helping them make the most of the experience.
