New School Crossing Patrol

 

 A new crossing is being  installed at Dundonald Rd / Mount Village.    

EAC is hoping to have the civils aspect completed during the October week.

The signals will be installed by a specialist contractor shortly after

which will have minimal disruption. 

We encourage parents to use their new facility when it is up and running.  

The crossing will be slightly to the right of the old site,

this  is due to the proximity of the bus stop.

 

P6 Class Charter.

Primary 6 worked together to create a class charter.

Rights Respecting Schools Our Right of the Month

The Article from the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) which we are looking at in class and at assemblies between now and the October holiday is Article 16:-

“Every child has the right to privacy. The law should protect the child’s private, family and home life”.

Here is a link to all the Articles. Can you spot the ones we have already looked at in school?

Apologies to anyone experiencing difficulties logging on to Bug Club this week. This is very unusual and we have been in contact with Pearson about it.

JRSO More Parking Issues

Image result for jrso logo

The other day we posted about parking issues within the school grounds, however we have received complaints and concerns  from several residents about inconsiderate parking in the streets around the school.

Please do not:  park on the zig-zag lines; on grass verges, block runways, park on the corner or move cones.

We are also worried that children cannot see leaving the school gates because of parked cars.

Please park sensibly, carefully and considerately.
