Our Year 5-7 footballers were delighted to take part in a friendly football tournament today wearing Glasswater’s brand new football kit. A massive thank you to our wonderful PTA for raising the funds so we could purchase the kit for our pupils to wear when they are representing Glasswater at sporting events. The pupils love it! 

Well done to those who took part today-for showing excellent sportsmanship throughout. We are so proud of you! 

Thanks to Mr McFerran and his squad of helpers for organising a great tournament and giving our pupils the opportunity to play against other local schools.

We were so delighted to find a surprise gift at our gates one morning.  Mickey McClements had given us some absolutely beautiful planters which will brighten up John Street and our school gates.  Thank you so much for your kindness and all that you do for the Crossgar community.  #smallschoolbigheart 

This morning, the pupils and staff were treated to fabulous performances from our school choir, ukulele group and guitarists. The singers and musicians did a great job as they filled our hall with music and joy! It was the perfect opportunity to wish a very special lady a very special happy birthday!

Our amazing secretary, Sara, celebrates her birthday over the holidays and we wish her many happy returns from the Glasswater school family. Super-organised, kind, helpful, caring, always smiling, thoughtful.....we are so appreciative of all that Sara does in our wee school!

We loved celebrating with our amazing pupils as they received their Headteacher awards this morning. 

It’s Science Week this week, so what better time to start our after school Science Club with Chris from Eureka Seekers! The boys and girls loved it and can’t wait to go back next week for some more exciting experiments as they engage with the wonders of Science.

Our pupils enjoyed a day in their comfies to read their favourite books and do lots of fun book-related activities in their classes today as they celebrated World Book Day. Mrs Wilson organised a special assembly and reminded us all of the many reasons we should read and enjoy books!
