Pleasure to say goodbye to Miss Byrne today. We wish her all the best tomorrow and hope she has a wedding day to remember. Can’t wait to meet Mrs Campbell on Monday.

What an achievement for another Arky Star. Ms Crawford ran the Loch Ness marathon for CRISIS counselling on Sunday. 26 gruelling miles in a great time of 5 hours 11 mins and a huge amount of over £1200 raised for a great cause. We are all very proud! Great job! 👍🏅🤗🌟⭐
We have just popped the lid on a time capsule discovered by the janitor. Hidden in 1996 to be opened 2020! Wonder what’s inside? If you were a P7 pupil session 1995-6 please get in touch. This was filmed for Blue Peter at the time.

World Book Day next week. We don’t want to put pressure on families to buy costumes. We’d rather you bought a good book. Instead of dressing up as your favourite character we will have a Bedtime Stories Day, Thursday 5 March. Wear your PJs and bring your fav book and teddy!
Things are a bit different in p7. We are introducing play into our week and learning about independence, prioritising, making choices and challenging ourselves within our learning. We're very excited!

Blown away by the kindness of the school community and staff. It’s great to be 21 again 😉 blessed to work with and for such amazing people. What a team! Thank you for making this a special day 👍🏻
Thinking of our P7 children tonight who would have been getting ready for a night of festivities. Unfortunately it was not to be. We are proud of how resilient you have been when faced with disappointment. Make tonight special in anyway you can. You are little stars 🌟
Congratulations Arkleston Primary School. You have successfully achieved the GOLD School Sport Award.

I just want to give a big thank you to all the staff, parents and children for their kind words, cards and beautiful gifts when I was leaving. I am overwhelmed and truly grateful. You make Arky a great school and are all Arky Stars. Thanks again. Mrs Sanderson xx
And just like that, the show was over! Thank you so much to everyone who came along and supported us over the last few days. A lot of shining stars with bright futures ahead ⭐️
A social distancing farewell to Mrs Powrie our classroom assistant off to university. Just remember, The More We Learn, The Brighter We Shine! Thank you for all you have done for the children and staff of Arkleston. 🌟
Thank you to

for offering to take care of our pond whilst school is closed. The family live directly opposite the school and have incorporated some TLC into their daily exercise routine, clearing out rubbish, counting the frogs and much more. Lots of learning 🐸🤩
Being a good friend is a character strength. True friends bring out the best in us and help us to be the best we can be. Surround yourself not with many friends, but the right friends that help you shine 🌟
A new little star is born. ⭐ Welcome to the world baby Aarian Thomson Kajla. Shine bright little one. Congratulations Mr and Mrs Kajla and enjoy your baby bubble.
Delighted to hear we’ve been awarded our 6th Eco Green Flag in recognition of 12 years worth of hard work. A big thank you to the eco committee and to Mrs Mitchell and Mrs McManus for evidencing our journey.

Thank you so, so much to everyone who donated for our Jubilee Tea party. The volume of cakes has been unbelievable. Thank goodness for the Fun Run and we can run them all off. More pics to follow.
First time eating in the dining hall for us all after 16 months. P1 did very well carrying their own trays and tidying up after themselves. What responsible citizens!
Thank you to those of you who gave up your time to support our children performing in their shows. We appreciated the wonderful audiences we’ve had over the week and wish you all a very, Merry Christmas 🎄
Arky Stars shine brightly and that’s every member of our school community. A big thank you to Mr Campbell for removing the graffiti and ensuring our environment remains inclusive and welcoming to all. Proud to work with a community that stands together when things go wrong 🥰⭐️
Thanks to your generosity, our Book Swap is all ready to go ahead tomorrow👍 every child will get the opportunity to take a book home to enjoy. Thank you to the house captains & house secretaries for helping to set it up. It looks great!

First full week back for our Arky Stars and they did brilliantly. Well done everyone. We know we can face the session as a strong team and face any challenges that may come our way! Arky Stars Shine Bright 🌟

We have had the most amazing week away with our P7 pupils at Ardentinny. We know they will be exhausted tonight but we’ve seen them at their highs and lows and been with them every step of the way. That’s how you build a team. Well done Team Arky 🌟

As we learn about being citizens of Renfrew, we took time this session to find out more about our town and it’s history. Working with Renfrew YMCA to share their ideas, you can now see these translated into art by our friend

Have a wander round to find it ⭐️
Disappointed that sectarian vandalism has been painted on our container at school! We focus on helping our children to be respectful and responsible citizens but this is hurtful. If any members of our community can help to power wash this vandalism off, we would appreciate it.
Help us to help our pupils manage their feelings in a calm and rational way. We are all role models for our children, let’s set them the best example. You may not be able to chose your feelings but you can chose how you react to and display them 🌟
