  Award Winning Author Visit

  Award Winning Scottish Author Stuart Reid came to St. Malachy’s to promote a love of reading His assembly is still being talked about by the boys and girls and we haven’t stopped laughing since His love of reading is infectious and he has instilled this in all the boys and girls who were very excited to start reading his books Stuart also held Creative Writing Workshops for the P5, P6 & P7 children These were equally fun and engaging and have encouraged some budding authors amongst our pupils. A fantastic day had by all, thank you Stuart

  School Calendar 2024/25

  We are delighted that our School Calendar has come back from the printers, and will be distributed tomorrow to the eldest child in the family Filled with all of our school dates for the year, this will keep you right We would ask for a contribution of £2 per calendar, as these are a big cost to the school but we feel of great benefit to Parents and Guardians. The £2 can be given to class teachers after calendar goes home - thank you

  Digital Leaders

  Today we held a Special KS2 Assembly where we announced our Head Boy, Head Girl, Deputy HB & HG and Prefects. These children were appointed based on staff feedback from their years in our school (a very difficult task given how many children are deserving), great appointments who will do us proud

  Our Digital Leaders received their badges at this assembly and have already started supporting children throughout the school (and staff!) in all things ICT

  We are so very proud of our boys and girls

  P5MD and our P7 Digital Leaders enjoyed a morning of coding with the Dream Space Team celebrating World Space Week on a live Teams meeting. The boys and girls explored basic coding while making their own space-themed game using MakeCode Arcade. The Digital Leaders are now looking forward to showcasing their new skills to other classes! #MSDreamSpace
