At Get Together this morning we discussed sun safety. ☀️
With this lovely weather we have been having, it is important our young people remember to:
Slip 👕
Slop 🧴
Slap 🧢
Slide 🕶️
Shade ☂️
Please ensure your child comes to school with a sun hat/sunglasses and sun cream applied in the morning. It would also be useful if they had a bottle of sun cream (with their name on) in their school bags so they can apply it to themselves later in the day.

We are delighted to share with you that due to a successful funding application to the Small Wind Farms, every child in our school will receive a 4 week block of swimming at our local swimming pool. Please see the timetable below of when your child’s class will attend.
On your child’s swimming days they must bring in a bag:
Parent helpers to support the walking to and from the pool have been arranged, however, they cannot support with the changing of any of our pupils, other than their own.
We ask that if any parents/carers of our infant classes (P1, P1/2, P2/3) wish to come to the pool to support with the changing of their OWN CHILD ONLY prior to or after the lesson is finished, please see the timings below. The class teacher will also be on hand to support with the changing of our infant classes.
Please note that there will not be any phone calls made home for missing swimming bags, as we are sure you can appreciate how busy our office is. Any child who does not have the appropriate kit will sit pool side with their class teacher during the 30 minute lesson.
A huge thank you again to the Small Wind Farms for their generous donation, we know our families will be extremely grateful of their child receiving the opportunity of lessons at no cost to them. ❤
Today we honoured Down’s Syndrome Awareness by asking everyone to come to school wearing odd socks.
We learned about what it means to have Down’s Syndrome and about what makes us all different and unique.
We are asking our families to, where possible, donate to the Down’s Syndrome Scotland charity using the link below…
To celebrate the end of term almost here, on Friday, we will be hosting a whole school FAB Friday Get Together, where we will be recognising the Wider Achievements of our pupils .
We want to hear about your child’s successes! Please bring in your certificates, medals or stories about your achievements from this past term.
To help with the programming of the morning, please complete the form below by Thursday evening to let us know what your child wishes to celebrate. We will use the names gathered on the Form to create the running order.

Our school uniform enhances the feeling of “belonging” to the school. Our uniform also increases our security as it makes easily identified.
We are proud of our school colours of red, black and white, and are sure that the wearing of them adds a sense of pride and of responsibility to the wearer.
