Angus Alive Summer Activity Programme 2017

Angus Alive Summer Activity Programme 2017.

Helping your little animals to keep healthy, active and creative this holiday season, we have a huge variety of activities from holiday camps to crafts, outdoor activities and reading challenges to help entertain and inspire the minds of the little people in your lives.

Our sports activities include camps for athletics, a Scottish Football Association programme and a general holiday theme where sports include golf and an obstacle course – or why not get your little monkeys on the 2-day climbing wall course. Craft activities offer anything from 3D printing to an Animal Agents Lego play and a drawing class with a local artist. There’s even a family show at The Webster Memorial Theatre, ‘Goldilocks and The Three Bears’ – fun for all the family! Or why not put leaves on your family tree and book a session at Angus Archives. Whether your little fish wants to swim, your frog wants to leap in gymnastics, your hound wants to be a secret agent or your rhino wants to TRY rugby, with prices starting from £2.60 per activity.

Get your little ones signed up today!

 

 

Communications

Angus Council have signed all Angus schools up to a system called Groupcall, which we will now be using to contact parents/carers instead of printing letters/flyers/newsletters etc.
This will mean that, for routine communications, we will now be contacting the person recorded as the main carer of the pupil by text or e-mail (depending on the size of document being sent).
We will not be monitoring the group call system for responses and so please continue to use the school number, 01241 803472, for notifying of absences etc.

 

Carnoustie and District By-Election – Monday 5th December 2016

The dining area of our school has been earmarked to be used to host the Carnoustie and District By-Election on Monday 5 December 2016. The pupils will be able to attend school as normal that day.
As there will be no direct access to the kitchen and dining area on the day, a packed-lunch style school meal will be offered to pupils at the normal school lunch cost. Unfortunately no hot meals can be served.  The packed lunch will consist of a ham, tuna or cheese roll, a salad bowl, a piece of cake, fruit and a choice of drink. These will be served in the gym hall.
Pupils who bring their own packed lunches can still do so as normal.
I have also been instructed that the accessible car parking spaces will need to be kept free for the purposes of the polling and that an area of the staff car park will be sectioned off for the whole of the day.
I apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause but I feel it is a small sacrifice to make in order for the pupils to be able to attend school on this election day.
The Kids Club will still be able to run but children should be dropped off through the front door of the school.
If you would like to discuss this matter further, please do not hesitate to be in touch.

Unstoppable – Harvest Festival 2016

A huge thank you to everyone who came to see our Harvest Festival.  We raised a fabulous £220 for Dundee Cancer Charities and enough food was donated to the Angus Foodbank to feed a family for 12 days.  Children in Primary’s 4 and 5 heard all about the Foodbank Network and how they help people in need.  For more information on Angus Foodbank and to find out how you can help please follow this link: Angus Foodbank

Below are some photographs of the Alf from the Angus Foodbank speaking with one of the classes along with photographs of Primary 4a and 4b with the food collected and a thank you letter from Dr D J A Adamson, Clinical Oncologist.
