Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood
As part of our health and wellbeing curriculum, our pupils will learn about relationships, sexual health and parenthood. Please find attached the parent leaflets which will provide information on the content and key vocabulary which will be covered during this term. If you do not wish for your child to take part in the health and wellbeing lessons, please contact the school office.
School Photographs
The date for school photographs has changed to Tuesday 7th May instead of Wednesday 8th May. Tempest Photography will be in school on Tuesday 7th May to take individual/sibling photographs. If you do not wish for your child to have their photograph taken, please complete the form below.
Walk to School Week
Lochnorris Primary School will be participating in Walk to School Week from Monday 25th March – Thursday 28th March. A daily walking theme has been created to encourage children to walk school. We are hoping many of our pupils will participate in our ‘Walk to School’ campaign which will help us earn extra points towards our journey to Jupiter. Whilst walking to school is a great way to keep fit, it also helps to reduce pollution in our environment. If you normally travel by car, you can still take part by parking and striding.

Online Learning Journals
At Lochnorris we are continuing to use an online system of Learning Journals to record and share significant points of learning with our parents/carers. This system enables you to access and comment on your child’s ongoing progress and learning. Our older pupils will be able to upload and share their own learning with parents/carers.
Parents and carers can access their child’s profile online from home. P1 pupils who have transitioned from Cherry Trees will have have the same learning journal as last session. You should use the same unique username, password and pin that you previously created. If you have forgotten these details, you can reset them on the learning journals website/app.
Please click the link below to access the learning journal website.
