Hello everyone,

Feedback Friday
Just a reminder that on Friday 29th September, it is Feedback Friday. Can all home learning jotters/project work be brought into school with your child.

Open Classrooms
Once again, we are very much looking forward to opening our doors and welcoming parents/carers into school on Friday 6th October for Open Classrooms. We invite P1-4 parents between 9.30am and 10.00am and ask that you enter via the Clarkston Road Gate. Please use the doors to the right of the ramp to both enter and leave the school. P5-7 parents, we look forward to welcoming you between 11.15am and 11.145am and we ask you to enter and exit via the main front door at reception. We request a maximum of two adults per child. Our children and staff are looking forward to seeing you then if you are able to join us.

P1 Recycling Project
Primary 1 are delighted to be helping out our Primary 7 pupils with their STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) Recycling Project. The project involves using recycled materials to create a piece of clothing to wear at a fashion show at Williamwood High School. This will take place in the evening of Thursday 5th October (time to be confirmed).

The Primary 1 pupils will be making a piece of jewellery out of recycled materials, which will be taken to Williamwood High School to be displayed as part of the fashion event. We are kindly asking for each child to bring a selection of recycled materials to create their piece of jewellery on Monday 2nd October. These are items that you would otherwise be recycling or throwing away. This includes items such as bottle tops, cartons, cereal boxes, yoghurt pots, bubble wrap, plastic bottles etc.

Primary 6 and 7 STEAM Event
Please see attached letter regarding an invitation to a STEAM showcase event on 5th October at Williamwood High School.

P7 Vision Screening
On Mon 2nd October NHS staff will be in school to carry out vision screening for your child.

As of yet, we have not heard any further updates in relation to the planned 3 days of industrial action next week and I would therefore ask you to please check ERC social media for any updates with regards to this.  If industrial action is called off later today, or over the weekend we will look forward to welcoming all children back to school on Tuesday.

Have a lovely long weekend.
