Please note that each class will attend Gym on the following days:
Gym will continue being outside for the time being. We would ask that children wear jogging trousers/leggings on these days with their polo shirt and school sweatshirt. We would ask you to respect the policy of not wearing football shirts.
Please be advised that activities will take place in school on Tuesday 30th March to celebrate the last day at Kirkstyle Campus. Children are welcome to come to school in their casual clothes. Buses will return to Loanhead, Dick Road as normal at 3pm. A special Easter lunch menu has been arranged as follows:
Good morning everyone and I hope you are all safe and well.
For your assurance whenever we are informed of any possible positive Covid 19 case we treat it as positive and follow the stringent protocol in place immediately. This is to ensure that all of those who could possibly be impacted are informed and that all areas with potential virus contact is cleaned with virucide. During the time when the school has been split the instructions from the authority have been that only those who were in school should be included in any communication especially as there is “stay at home” message for everyone in place. However after I passed on concerns this has changed and from now on all parents will receive communication. I hope this reassures everyone.
I went on another site visit and a great deal of work has taken place in the four weeks since my last one. The top two stories of the main building are completed and the dining hall and kitchens are almost installed. The Early Childhood Centre is nearing completion and the second visit with the Care Commission takes place on the 22nd March. The new school furniture has been ordered and delivery has begun. We are busy preparing for the move back over the Easter break and hopefully we will be able to send out some pictures soon. You will also see that the playground space is beginning to take shape and the MUGA pitch is complete. During the two exceptional closure days before and the two after the break there will be remote learning provided and supported by staff to make sure that educational provision is made for the children.
We are looking forward to having the rest of the school back in school learning and many thanks go to everyone who has helped and supported the children during remote learning. Bus numbers are as follows:
This will allow us to maintain our current bubbles and in class pods. I appreciate that it means some parents are collecting from two different buses but it is the safest way to do this for the short period of time we have before the break.
We would appreciate it if you could ensure the office have your most up to date telephone number and email as many of the numbers we have been calling of late have no longer been in use. We understand that people forget to update the school especially if your child is home learning but telephone and email are principal ways for us to get in touch with you individually. If you could email these details to the school or phone the office it would be greatly appreciated.
We are looking forwards to seeing all of the children back on Monday.
Please take care.
