In school we learn about All World Religions. Children do not require to pray or sing if attending but do benefit from attending with friends and this church service offers another opportunity to learn about religious traditions and celebrations.<\/p>\n Any parents\/carers who DO NOT wish their children to attend the church service must notify the school office by Friday 6th<\/sup> December 2024 please<\/u>. We need to finalise the numbers of children not attending by this date to arrange suitable staff ratios between school and church. Therefore, unfortunately if the office staff are not informed by this date (6th<\/sup> December 2024), we will assume that your child will be attending the church service and will plan accordingly for this and we are not able to make any changes to church attendance after this date 6th<\/sup> December).<\/p>\n P6c Baking Please advise us if there are any changes to the allergy information we hold for your child.<\/p>\n Primary 7: S1 Transfer Forms For catchment applications, you will receive an acknowledgement email where you will find the link to upload the evidence required.\u00a0 Please ensure to quote the reference number within the email.\u00a0 Evidence required is this current year\u2019s council tax, and a utility bill dated within the last month.\u00a0 Can the utility bill clearly show name, address and the date within the last month.<\/p>\n
