Christmas Pantomime

OH NO IT’S NOT! OH YES IT IS!
Our Christmas Pantomime this year is Cinderella.
After consultation with parents last year, it was decided that the Pantomime will take place in the school. As in previous years, there will be two showings, both taking place during the school day on Friday 19th December.
The cost of the Pantomime is £4 per child and is available to pay on ParentPay. The £4 can be paid in instalments with the minimum payment being set at £1.
If you need any further information or require a barcoded letter, please contact the school office.
Thank you for your continued support

Data Check Returns

The children came home with their data check forms on Friday.  Thank you to all of those parents who have already sent them back in, it is much appreciated.  Please remember to write any medical information on the form even if we already know about it.

The link to the photograph permissions form is below and we would also ask that this is completed as soon as possible.  Thank you

Polwarth House Treat – Yellow House

At prizegiving, the Yellow House were announced as the overall winners for this year. Their points were earned throughout the year for consistently demonstrating the school values.
As a reward, the Yellow House pupils are invited to take part in a Colour Run Obstacle course this Friday 20th at 2pm.
Yellow House pupils should bring an old set of clothes to change into after lunch time as they will get wet and very dirty! If they have sunglasses it would also be useful.  Any Yellow House child may bring a water soaker with them if they have one.
We are also hoping to provide children with an ice cream.
If you do not want your child to have an ice cream or participate in the colour run, please contact the school office.
