Hello everyone,
Thanks to those who attended and took part in our tie gifting ceremonies for children moving on to school in August. We wish them well and look forward to welcoming our returning children for another fabulous year!
Lost Property
We have a large number un-named items which will be displayed inside the front door for you to look through. If these are not claimed by the last day of term, we will be happy to recycle them.
Medication & Sun Cream
Please remember to collect any medication and sun cream on your child’s last day of attendance.
Beach Theme Session Tuesday 24th June 9.30 – 11am
We are all looking forward to some sunshine next week and will be having a range of Beach Themed fun. If possible, please send in a small towel and change of clothes for water play on that day. We will also be offering glitter “tattoos” if children would like them. Please let us know at drop off if you don’t want your child to have a tattoo. If your child does not normally attend on a Tuesday at this time, they are very welcome to come along to join in from 9.30 – 11am. The children will be offered fruit snacks and an ice cream cone (we are already aware of any intolerances and allergies).
Thank you to the very wonderful PTA
On behalf of the entire school and nursery community, we would like to say a huge thank you to Handri, Michelle and all of the volunteer parents who have helped as part of the PTA. Your hard work, time, and generosity have made a lasting impact on our children and staff. We are truly grateful for everything you do to help our school and nursery thrive each session.
Thank you to the Parent Council
As the school year draws to a close we would like to send a heartfelt thankyou to the members of the Parent Council, who have diligently worked in partnership with the PTA, the Leadership Team and various members of staff to build a strong, supportive community ethos. Special thanks to our outgoing Parent Council Chairpersons– Harriet Boyle and Gillian Gray for a fantastic job over the last 2 years, it has been a pleasure to work with you both. Also, thank you very much to Victoria Pearson who has been the PC Secretary for the last 2 years too and to Michelle Borland for the production of the very information Parent Council Newsletters as well.
We now extend a warm welcome to two more parents, Mike Law and Conor McCarthy who have volunteered to take the Chairperson(s) role forward – we look forward to working with you and all the members of the Parent Council over the coming session.
Simply….Thank you
A huge thank you to all the parents and families who support us with their attendance at Stay and Plays, sports activities and special events throughout the year. We really appreciate your level of participation. We close our “thank you” messages by mentioning our fantastic parent Mrs Helen Cross who inspires our learners with opportunities for connecting with nature, learning about biodiversity, growing food and the joy of gardening! Helen has worked tirelessly with a range of children throughout the year to help improve our gardens and communal green spaces. Thank you Helen and thank you again to all.
A Message from the Parent Council
We’re at the end of another year and we’ve hugely enjoyed chairing the Parent Council, the vital link between the school leadership team and parents and carers. We would love to see new members for the 2025-26 session, to ensure we continue to represent everyone’s views. If you’re interested in learning more about school and nursery improvement work, discussing community issues that impact on the school, and engaging more closely with the staff team, please join us at our first meeting for the new term on Wednesday, 3rd September. Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last year and good luck to our new team! Have a great summer. Harriet & Gillian.
Drowning Prevention Week
Next week marks Drowning Prevention Week in Scotland, a vital campaign aimed at raising awareness about water safety and reducing the number of drowning incidents across the country. Please see the attachments with more information.

As always, we are always here to help in any way we can, whether that be about your own child or a more general matter in relation to the school or nursery. We are also always looking for suggestions and new ideas so please don’t hesitate to get in touch at any time.
Have a wonderful weekend.
