YIPWORLD staff will run a 6 week programme on cycle maintenance and cycle skills in the school from March to May 2023. The training will take part during the school day across a number of weeks.
Places on the course are very limited and are now open to any interested P6 pupils. They must have their own bicycles and cycle helmet. Places will be given out on on a first-come, first -served basis.
If you would like your child to take part, please contact the school in writing by 3 p.m. on Monday 27 February.
*Further information will be sent out to those who are successful.
To celebrate World Book Day children can bring in their favourite book to read to other children. If you have any children’s story books at home which you would like to donate to the school we will also be running a book swap shop on the day. Please do not feel obliged to buy any books or costumes for the day. The children are expected to come to school in their normal uniform as we do not wish to put additional financial pressure on parents. However, if your child already has a favourite book character costume and wishes to come dressed up then they may do so.
World Book Tokens were issued last week, please check your child’s schoolbag.
School lunches have a special menu that day, please see the attached poster.

Again all money raised will be used for the children in the school. “
Let’s Connect is about making meaningful connections. Human beings thrive in communities, and this connection is vital for our wellbeing. When we have healthy connections – to family, friends and others – this can support our mental health and our sense of wellbeing. And when our need for rewarding social connections is not met, we can sometimes feel isolated and lonely – which can have a negative impact on our mental health.
As parents and carers, you play an important role in your child’s mental health. Click the link below to find a range of free resources that you can access:
