We are looking forward to seeing the new S1s this week and hope they are excited about their visit! 

In preparation for these days there will be a virtual classroom visit to all P7s to remind them about the format for the two days. During the induction days (Tuesday and Wednesday) teaching staff and senior pupils will be on hand to ensure that they are supervised and supported at all times. As part of the virtual class visit I will be reminding pupils about the following items and bits of information they will need to bring with them next week: 

• A schoolbag and stationery 
• A note of their new PLP and practical class (eg. 1A1- 1P3) 
• Their username and password for logging on to the computers, this is the same one used in the primary school 
• A pair of trainers for P.E.  
• A snack for interval 
• A free school lunch will be available, although you may wish to bring your own packed lunch.

  Our school cafeteria has kindly agreed to provide a free school meal for any pupil who would like to sample what’s on offer, although, you may wish to bring your own packed lunch. Please note that our new S1 will have a designated area to eat lunch as a year group and will not be allowed to leave this area at interval or lunch during their two day visit.

  Kind regards
