Thank you to all our parents who were able to come along on Wednesday evening to our Residential Information Session.  I hope everyone found it useful and are excited about our P7 adventure!

For those who were unable to make it, I have attached the PowerPoint that was shown on Wednesday to this post.  All P7 pupils have been shown this PowerPoint and should be able to talk their adults through it.

All P7’s have also received a letter today outlining details of the trip.  If you have any questions or would like further information, please contact Mrs Clarke at the school.

The Parent Pay link has gone LIVE today.  the link is for the MAXIMUM COST, but only £50 is needed as a non-refundable deposit to secure a spot on the residential.  Deposits must be paid by WEDNESDAY 14th SEPTEMBER.  If you have any questions around this please contact the school.

We are hoping to keep the cost as low as possible, but as I’m sure you will understand, we are obligated to tell you what the maximum cost is in case we cannot secure additional funding.

We are all looking forward to this amazing trip to make memories that will last a lifetime!

The P4-7 Learning Journals are very basic at the moment and once the children are in school and classes are up and running these will develop.  More information as to how we as a school intend using the journals will be shared and drop in sessions for trouble shooting and helping with issues will be in place.  

Good Afternoon,

Not long now everyone!  Myself and all the staff can’t wait to see you on Thursday morning!  I hope you have all had a well earned rest with your families.

Please see below new entrance and exit points for you to make yourself familiar with.  There will be an adult at each of these points to help you if needed.

New P1’s start at the later time of 9.30am and finish at 12.30pm on Thursday only.  Could you please enter the gate identified above instead of the community entrance, as identified in earlier correspondence.  P1’s can then gather with parents in the back playground before class teachers lead them into their classes.

Should you wish to speak to a member of staff before Thursday, the school will be open for our in-service day on Wednesday 17th August.

See you soon,

Mrs McMurdo
