• C.P.S. Clothes Bank Collection

  Mon 25 Mar 2019

  At present our new clothes bank has been filled 4 times which means that we have raised almost £150 so far for Eco projects in school.  Not bad for very little effort!

   

  We have a challenge for you all.  On Thursday 28^th March we want as many families as possible in the school to try and bring in 1 bag of unwanted clothes.  Check at home and ask other family members if they have any unwanted clothes and you might be surprised at how much you can collect together.  These bags are then to be brought into school on Thursday morning and can be left in the Assembly Hall between 8.30-9am.  The bags should be left in via the side door in the P2-3 playground.

  Remember to check on the clothes bank to see what can be added.

   

   

  

• Big Pedal- Active Travel

  Thu 21 Mar 2019

  Big Pedal Active travel event   Monday 25th March to Friday 5th April

  https://bigpedal.org.uk/

   

  It is that time of year again where we think about how we travel to school.  From Monday 25th March to Friday 5th April we challenge you to try and travel to school in one of these ways.

   

  P1-3 - Walk to school only.

  P4-7 – Cycle or scoot to school.  If you can’t cycle or scoot then try to walk in.

   

  Those cycling into school in P4-7 MUST wear a helmet and all bikes and scooters MUST be locked up.

   

  We will be recording the number of children taking part in each class and there will be a prize for the year group with the highest total at the end of the 2-week challenge.  If you walk, cycle or even scoot to school with your child your journey will be included in their class total.

  What is it about?

  • This aims to get people walking to school instead of taking the car.
  • It allows parents to walk with their children and is a great way to have a chat along the way with others.
  • It is proven that walking and being outdoors is good for your mental health no matter what age you are.
  • Anyone from P1-7 can take part.
  • Anyone who does not normally walk on their own MUST be accompanied by an adult on the whole route.

   

  Who are the route leaders? 

  • Mrs Hoey on Route 1
  • Mr Bradley on Route 2
  • Mr Pinkerton on Route 3

   

  So why not join us on our Walking Bus.  How many people can we get involved on each route?
