Scottish Government Free Bus Travel

Free bus travel is available to all pupils aged 5 and over from 31 January 2022 and can be accessed via the National Entitlement Card.  We have been working with Customer Services as parents have a choice of applying for a new card via the school system or they can go directly to https://getyournec.scot/nec/.  If they go through the NEC website,  parents will require to validate both their identity and that of their child.
The other option is for them to apply for a National Entitlement Card  / Kidz Kard via the school.  This option assumes that both the parent’s and child’s identity has been validated and simplifies the process the parents. Please go to:

Please submit any applications before 15th June to ensure your child receives their free bus travel card before the end of term.

Sad News

MR JOHN FADDES

It is with the greatest of sadness that we write to inform you of the death of our much loved previous janitor and friend, Mr John Faddes.
John was a unique character, kind, caring and always full of fun. He was  wonderful with the children and well known for his practical jokes and his infectious laugh.
John was an ardent football fan and delighted in wins for the school team as well as his beloved Talbot.
He was also a keen supporter of the school’s Eco work and donated a cup to recognise this work in the school.
Our thoughts and sympathies are with his wife and family.
