Our Primary 7 children have been invited to take part in St. Andrew’s Hospice annual ‘Wear Yellow Sponsored Walk’ on Wednesday 7th June. This is a fundraising event and will involve doing 1 lap around Strathclyde Park loch. We are asking our families and friends to help us raise money, so we are collecting donations through a Just Giving Page. If you are able to make a donation, you can do so by following the link below. All money raised will be used for the care and comfort of patients at the Hospice. Many thanks for all your support.

We have a very large selection of pre-loved items for all our families free of charge. If your child/ren require a top up of any of their school uniform, please pop into the office or give us a call and we'll do our best to help. We are currently short of boys trousers in smaller sizes (ages 4 up to 10 years) Please hand in any donations to the school office. Any other donations of clothing can be placed in our clothing bank in the car park behind the Sainsburys at Portland Place, this helps with our schools fundraising.
PUPILS CLOTHING
Can we please remind parents/carers to ensure ALL clothing, lunch boxes, bottles etc are clearly marked with your child’s name and class. This means items can be matched up quickly. Lost property can be found at the stairwell doors at primary 1. Unclaimed lost property will be added to our pre-loved stock if not collected after one month.
