Marys Meals

It has come to the time of the year when we ask the children to think of others less fortunate than therselves. We would like to participate in the Mary's Meals Backpack project for the third year in a row. This involves the donation of items to be sent to children in Malawi. Some of these items can be used, but in clean and in good condition, others could be from supermarket value ranges. The project ties in with our Eco Schools project as it encourages recycling and Global links. It also reflects the Catholic ethos of the school and our desire to help those in a less fortunate position.

The following items are required by the children of Malawi to enable them to attend school:

Week Beginning 5th December - Old backpacks/school bags, stationary ie. pencil cases, pencils, rulers, rubbers, coloured pencils, crayons, notebooks.

Week Beginning 12th December - Clothes and summer shoes/sandals (age 4-11 approx) Summer dresses for girls/shorts and t-shirts for boys

Week beginning 19th December - Soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, spoon, small ball, small towel

This is our Advent appeal, so please donate what you can between now and the end of term.

Further information can be found at www.marysmeals.org

Welcome to St Clare's Primary School

At St. Clare's it is our fervent hope that parents will enter into a partnership with the school to provide for its pupils a happy, safe and secure educational environment instilling into the children a pride in their school and locality. Your child will cope best when he/she knows that we are all working together, presenting the same standards and expectations for his/her education and future. We are always pleased to welcome parents and to encourage your involvement in the school.

I hope that this website will help to inform you about St Clare's School, and I look forward to developing a partnership with you and ask you to support our school aims and policies for the education of your child.

In partnership with Glasgow City Council, we aim to

  1. Create a learning environment in which our children feel happy, secure and eager to learn. Through our inclusive Catholic ethos, we will ensure the formation of children who always give their best for God, for themselves, for their families and for other people

  2. Raise the attainment of all children across the curriculum, setting challenging but acheivable targets for each child within a school ethos of excellence

  3. Work Flexibly and creatively to ensure access to the curiculum for all children.

  4. Develop each child's spiritual, moral, physical and emotional maturity in partnership with parents.

All staff, ancillary and teaching, are fully committed to their pastoral role in ensuring that every child feels happy, valued and successful within the school. We at St Clare's endeavour to develop in our children not only a love of their faith and of learning, but also a desire to reach beyond the confines of the school, to take their place in the community and in the world at large.

I know we can count on your support

The fastest reaction was done by David Christie the time was 0.43 and he still would have gone 9 metres before stopping.
