Well done to this week’s Ruby Reward pupils

Just a reminder that you still have time to return the Flu Vaccine consent form.

Immunisation will take place in school on Friday 13th November.

Just a reminder that Catrine Primary School operates a School Streets restriction that closes roads around the school to non-resident traffic during drop-off and pick-up times to protect children.

Restriction Times (Monday – Friday) : Morning: 8:45 AM – 9:15 AM & Afternoon: 2:45 PM – 3:15 PM

Key Rules & Details

• Traffic Ban: Cars and vans cannot enter the streets around the school during the restricted hours.
• Exceptions: Rules do not apply to local residents, permit holders, or blue badge holders.
• Goals: The project aims to reduce traffic congestion at the school gate, lower pollution, and encourage walking or cycling.

We appreciate that parents/carers follow the School Streets programme, and in some cases you may have to bring your car to the school. If this is the case please be mindful and respect home owners that live in Fourfields and James Taylor Avenue, and DO NOT park across their driveways.

Thank you

Just a polite reminder that Catrine Primary School is a

NUT FREE SCHOOL.

Please be aware that no snacks/lunch food brought into the school contains NUTS.

We have children in the school that have a NUT allergy.

Thank you for your cooperation with this.

Just a reminder that our Rag Bag collection is on Monday 14th Sept.

We can start taking bags on Friday 11th September.

Good reason to clear out some drawers and cupboards.

We were delighted to welcome our P1 parents into school this afternoon.  Our P1 pupils were super excited to show off their new classroom and demonstrate how well they have settled into school.

We asked our Big Question “How effective was our transition programme ?”  Here are the responses:

• My son seems to be settling in well and is enjoying school.
• Really good experience. Buddy system is good as it made her feel more confident to come to the school. More open days would be good.
• Buddy system is excellent.
• Transition days from nursery to primary one were very good.  They were frequent enough that ‘big school’ was often talked about at home and looked forward to.
• Really good transition program. Really helped my son familiarise himself with school and made starting in August a lot easier.
• It really helped build confidence and look forward to starting school.
• School visits really helped my son getting used to coming and kind of knowing what to expect.
• I felt the transition process was really beneficial and the regular visits helped my children become familiar with the school.  I found the info session and info packs really helpful too.
• Buddy system is amazing. Gives them support and someone to turn to.
• My son loved all his transition visits and spoke about his buddy often.

Our P5s are attending CAMPS sessions in school.

To follow their progress follow the ‘CAMPS What’s ON’ page on Facebook and Instagram.

Looking good P5 🙂

Thank you.

We met in our Home Circles for the first time this year and our P7 leaders did a wonderful job of settling in our younger pupils.

As well as completing an ‘All About Me’ overview for the new Circle, the pupils worked together to provide wonderful answers about our CATRINE Values.

Check out their awesome answers below!

Our BIG question…

Our CATRINE Values are displayed all around the school and ECC. What do they mean for us?
