Communication
As a school, we communicate in the following ways:
App – To provide instant information which includes diary dates, messages, news items and ways to communicate with the school.
Blogs – Whole school Blog provides information about all aspects of our school. Our P1 and P2 classes have their own class Blogs and you will find the link to these from the whole school Blog in the menu tab.
Teams – Pupils in from P3 to P7 will be part of a class Team and this is where you will find class information including homework, class updates etc.
Twitter – To share successes and learning. Our Twitter handle is @NetherRob_ps
ParentPay – We operate an online payment service called ParentPay, allowing you to pay for trips, school meals, uniforms and much more. This will be set when you child starts school.
Rascals
Rascals is available before and after school for those who require childcare out with the school day. You can contact Ainsley on 07949 334945 and rascals.manager@gmail.com.
Over the summer holiday, the infant end of the school has been refurbished and it is looking great. We can’t wait for you to see the improvements. The first opportunity for this will take place during our ‘Meet the Teacher’ sessions.
I would like to take this opportunity to inform the school community that Mrs Shaw is now Mrs Beveridge.
