A visit to St. Andrews Cathedral, 22nd September 2026

Recount by Georgia Muir and Ruaridh McCulloch

Anticipation building, we stepped through the heavy, polished doors, where two cheerful Nuns greeted us with warm smiles and handed over our Order of Service cards. As we entered the vast open space of the cathedral, a sudden, reverent hush fell over us. We paused at the stone fountain, dipping our fingers into the cool holy water to make the sign of the cross. 

As suspense gradually built, we enthusiastically walked over to be told where we were sitting. It was pretty close to the altar. Close enough we could hear what was being said without the speaker! All of a sudden Archbishop Nolan leisurely walked over to start the Mass.

A melodious chorus of voices filled the hall, marking the official start of the Mass. We stood in unison, lifting our voices to join the opening hymn. After the readings and prayers, the congregation moved forward for communion. We filed down the aisle toward the Archbishop and two assisting priests, waiting reverently to receive the Blessed Sacrament. Once everyone had partaken, we returned to our pews and softly took our seats.

We took our seats and resumed the Mass. Radiant beams shot down from the polished stained glassed windows paired with the shining sun.  We started to sing the hymn Shine Jesus Shine. After that we all stood up and one person in every school went for a picture with the Archbishop, in our case,Georgia went up for a picture and represented our school. Soon after we went to the exit and all of a sudden we were treated with a gift! A Kinder bar and a beautiful medal of St. Carlo Acutis.

Overall, I think everyone from our school  who attended the Mass would all agree that the entire experience was unforgettable.

The absolute highlights of the trip were the beautifully celebrated Mass and the lovely singing, both of which created a joyful and holy atmosphere. The Mass leaving us all with hope to return again in the future.

Oral Health

P2/1 pupils take part in daily toothbrushing sessions, helping them develop healthy habits that will last a lifetime. Each day, the children enthusiastically brush their teeth together, learning the importance of good oral hygiene in a fun and supportive environment. The programme encourages independence, builds confidence and helps pupils understand how to keep their teeth strong and healthy. Daily toothbrushing has become a positive part of the school routine, promoting healthy smiles and overall wellbeing.

Mobile Library Visit

P2/1 pupils were delighted by the arrival of the mobile library, bringing the joy of reading straight to the school gates. Filled with colourful books and exciting stories, each visit will inspire curiosity and a love of reading.

World Book Day Activities

Ukulele Sessions

Anna from YMI brought great energy to P5/6 and P6/7’s first ukulele sessions, getting everyone strumming and smiling right from the start. The classes jumped straight into exploring rhythm, chords, and technique, and the room was buzzing with enthusiasm as pupils discovered how quickly they could make real music together. It was a fantastic introduction to what promises to be an exciting block of learning.

Operation Play Outdoors

🌟 Pupils’ Achievements Outwith School

Pupils bring a rich range of experiences and accomplishments from beyond the classroom, and these achievements play an important role in shaping their confidence, character, and personal growth. Whether through participation in sports clubs, involvement in youth organisations, creative pursuits, volunteering, or personal responsibilities at home, pupils develop valuable skills that complement their learning in school. These outwith‑school achievements highlight qualities such as commitment, resilience, teamwork, leadership, and independence. Recognising them helps build a fuller picture of each young person’s strengths and the diverse ways they contribute to their communities.
