Paris trip update 2 – 22:21 on 13/06/2024
Latest update is that the Paris trip group are still together in the airport.
The school staff in Paris are communicating with Easy Jet and our Tour Provider to finalise arrangements for accommodation tonight and flight arrangements for tomorrow.

Paris Trip Update 1: 20:25 UK time – 13/6/24
Notice for all parents/ carers of pupils on the Paris Trip for Stewarton Academy.
Unfortunately, Mr Smallwood has just been informed that the return flight this evening has been cancelled by Easy Jet.
The group have been asked to collect their bags (they had been waiting to board).
We have no further information at this time about alternative arrangements.
Please do not be alarmed by this information. You may be aware that the same problem happened to the Paris trip last year.
On that occasion, Easy Jet arranged for transport to a hotel for the night and then a replacement flight the next day.
We are currently assuming that similar arrangements will be put in place this time.
However, we will update you with details as soon as we have these.
Kind regards.
John Stuart
Head Teacher

Dear Parents and Carers,

Important Message for all Parents/ Carers and Pupils S1, S2 and S3 only – who are attending Prize Giving on Tuesday 6th June 2023
We have had an exceptionally large and positive engagement and interest in Prize Giving this session. In particular, the demand for tickets from supportive parents, carers and family members has been far higher than in previous sessions.
In order to accommodate the numbers involved we have taken the decision today, to separate Prize Giving for S1 – 3 on Tuesday 6th June into two sections.
(Please note that the S4-6 Prize Giving on the following evening is not affected).
New timings are as follows:
S1 and S2 Prize Giving – 6.00 pm – 7.00 pm
S3 only Prize Giving 7.15 pm – 8 pm
Please contact the office if this adjustment of times causes any difficulties for you as a family as we have contingency plans in place for this scenario.
Please note that if you have a child at Prize Giving for S1-2 and another child in the S3 Prize Giving your tickets will be valid for both slots on the evening.
Please let the office know if you have requested tickets but are no longer able to attend.
We apologise for altering these arrangements at this stage but we trust that this change will result in a more condensed and pleasurable experience for all.
