What's happening at St Andrews this week...

We have a very busy week here at St Andrews this week, which we are all very excited about.

  • The P1,2&3s are busy rehearsing for the Christmas Show "The Hoity Toity Angel".
(A reminder for all girls to bring to school black leggings/trousers labelled and in a carrier bag.)
  • On Wednesday we are having our very first Open Day! From 2.00 - 3.00pm and 6.00 - 8.00pm parents are invited to come and see their children learn, and see around the School. Looking forward to seeing you there.
  • On Friday there is St Andrews CD launch  from 6.30 - 7.30pm. The CD is £10 and is available to buy from the School on Friday night and onwards. A great Christmas present maybe??!
  • And finally... The Holm Tree lighting is on Saturday night. The youngest and oldest pupils of Holm switch the lights on. We are delighted that the youngest is two of our P1 ladybirds - they are very excited about this.
