A reminder that when children are changing for PE, this should be a FULL change: shorts, t shirt and shoes.
We have a small selection of PE clothing in our uniform exchange if required.
Appropriate School Footwear
We have noticed an increase in children coming into school wearing Crocs. These are not classed as appropriate school footwear and would like to remind parents/carers of this.
We have a large selection of school shoes in our Uniform Exchange if required.
Thank you

Upper Car Park
Upper Car park
As you are aware the school car park and upper car park are for the sole use of staff and school visitors. Parents and carers should not be accessing the school car park at any point, this includes the upper overflow car park. Please also be aware of our safety concerns for parents/carers that have been accessing this space and then lifting children over the fence. Please use the lower school main gate to access the playground.
Thank you for your support with this.
Storm Damage
Storm Damage
Unfortunately two of our trees have come down during the storm last week. These are currently blocking our gates between the upper playground and the lower school playground. Parents and carers can only access the lower school playground via the lower school gate and the upper school playground via the main gate. At the end of the school day children from P4-7 that would normally meet adults in the lower playground will exit via the primary 2 door instead.
We also have damage to our main bell. This means there will be no bell at the start or end of the school day. Children will exit to the playground as normal.
Thank you for your support and understanding as we await removal and repair work.
