New S5 and New S6 Pupils Pupils in the New S5 and New S6 are required to clear their current lockers by the end of this term to allow space for the New S1 to be allocated lockers when they arrive in August. New S5 and New S6 pupils will also be allocated new lockers in August.
Pupils should return their locker key to the school office by the end of term at which time their £10 deposit will be returned. Any lockers that are not emptied by the end of term will be emptied during the summer break and their contents retained for collection in August. Any pupil who does not return their locker key by the end of term will not receive their £10 deposit as this will be used to purchase a new key.
