ASN Support Group
Good afternoon. Our names are Mrs McLeod and Mrs Watson and we are parents at Netherlee Primary. We would like to invite parents and carers to join us for a parent led ASN group. Initially we would like to support families with children who have, or may be on an Autism or ADHD journey. It doesn’t matter where you are on this wellbeing journey, we would love to welcome you to an initial meeting at Netherlee Primary on Wednesday 17th April at 9:15am in the Hub.

This would hopefully be the first of many opportunities to meet and chat and to be able to ask any burning questions! If you would like to join us please add your name to the Google form link below (just for numbers) or please feel free just to drop in on the morning.

Primary 7 – Show Costumes
As you will be aware, Netherlee Primary School’s production of High School Musical Jr. is fast approaching and as such, we would like to ask for your help to ensure that our budding actors, singers and dancers look their best on the night! We have been very busy sourcing and buying the more detailed parts of the costumes but would love if you could help with some of the more basics items if at all possible please.

Costume List

Principals:
Black long sleeve t-shirt, white short sleeve T shirt, black trousers or leggings.
Optional Jazz shoes or gym shoes

Optional cap/bucket hat and/or anything else to fit the character.

We would like your child, if possible, to bring these items into school by no later than Friday 19th April to give us plenty of time to check their full costume. As there are many children involved wearing similar items, we ask that all clothes, shoes and other costume parts be brought into school in a plastic bag labelled with your child’s name. We appreciate your help with this as it makes the organisation of the costumes as simple as possible.

Please do not worry at all if you are unable to source any of the above items as we will of course ensure that all children have what they need.  Please contact the P7 teachers via school mail if you have any questions. All items handed in will be returned after the final show.

Thank you very much for your assistance in helping to make our P7 show a success.

Primary 7 Teachers.

Have a wonderful holiday and we look forward to welcoming everyone back to school and nursery after the holiday fortnight on 15th April.
