Poppy Scotland
As a school, an important part of our calendar is Remembrance Day and the sale of poppies for Poppy Scotland. Unfortunately, as is the way with so many things this year, we will be unable to show our support in the usual way. However, should you still wish to donate to this cause, we would like to direct you to the Poppy Scotland website where there is a wide variety of items you can purchase instead:

Home Learning During Self-Isolation
Please click on the tab above – ‘Home Learning during Self-Isolation’- to find a selection of suggested learning activities for your child to access at home should they need to self-isolate or stay at home due to being unwell. If your child is too unwell to do any work while at home there is no pressure to complete the tasks. These are here to access as you wish. Please adapt and adjust according to your individual child.
Class teachers will also upload weekly homework on their Teams page which children can access from home using their Glow login. You may find it easier to download the Teams app onto a laptop, iPad or smartphone. Class teachers will also be uploading items to your child’s Bug Club account.
We hope that you find this helpful.
