We are open. No access to car park. If possible please walk in and around school.
Drop off and collection
If the ice in the playgrounds do not clear overnight, we will open the main entrance and P1/2 entrance for children at 8.45am. Main access points will once again be gritted from the main gate to main entrance and the car park path to the P1/2 playground. Access from the rear gate at the bowling club will only be for the P1/2 playground.
With the mix of rain and a drop in temperature, both playgrounds can still be treacherous at 3pm. If this is the case we will release P1/2 children from the usual exit but P3-7 from the main door. As all managers and support staff are required to ensure all children are collected safely, please contact the office before 2.30pm if changes to your child’s collection are required.
Thank you for your support in this matter.

Christmas Toy Appeal
Christmas Toy Appeal
Amey is running a toy recycling appeal with a number of Scottish Primary Schools, to support charities providing toys for disadvantaged children who might otherwise receive no presents this Christmas. Please consider donating your old toys, books, board games and comics. This will make room for this year’s presents. Give an old toy a new home. In 2015 we filled 3 bin bags full of toys, let’s see if we can beat that this year! Please make sure that all toys donated are in good working order. Thank you for your support.
Scottish Poppy Appeal
Poppies from The Scottish Poppy Appeal will be on sale in the school as from 1st November 2017. If you wish your child to buy one, please send your child in to school with a donation. In addition to this, P5-P7 children have been making poppy brooches at their jewellery club. Those brooches are on sale for £1.50 each and all the proceeds will be given to Poppy Scotland.
Thank you from the ER Foodbank
