\n<\/u><\/strong>We are all very excited to be celebrating the school\u2019s 90th<\/sup> Birthday on Mon 6th<\/sup> February. The day will begin with a whole school assembly. After that, classes will be preparing for parties that will be held on Thurs 9th<\/sup> Feb. The PTA has generously provided lovely arts and crafts resources to make party hats and bunting. Each class will hold a talent show to celebrate the wonderful talents that the school has nurtured over its\u2019 lifetime. Classes will also find out about the changes to the school and local area over the last 90 years. Our wonderful catering team have arranged a special birthday lunch of mince and tatties (vegetarian mince will be available too) and cake and custard. In addition, Mark Gibson has very kindly offered to take a special commemorative photograph. Weather permitting, all staff and pupils will go out to the playground so we can take a special aerial photograph.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Please see message below from our Parent Council:
\nThe next Parent Council meeting will take place in person in the school Hub at 7pm on Wednesday 15th February 7pm. All parents and carers from the nursery and school are welcome and we hope to see as many of you there as possible. As always there will be the opportunity to have open discussions on a range of topics with other parents and members of the school leadership team.\u00a0 If you have any matters you would specifically like to be discussed please contact us at: netherleeparentcouncil@gmail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>The school has many pre-loved uniform items available, you can view the rail for P1-3 at 8.50am or our P4-P7 sizes from 3pm, both at the Clarkston Road entrance – and don’t forget you can buy school badges anytime from the office (\u00a31) to add to your own burgundy items or navy polo shorts too.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>At Netherlee, we prioritise working effectively with our families to ensure high quality learning experiences for our children. We make sure that all<\/strong> families feel very welcome and are involved in the life of the school and nursery.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>As you know, children lead their own learning through play in P1 and P2. Children\u2019s ideas and interests are a key consideration when planning for our classroom and Open Area. We are once again, on the hunt for pre-loved items related to the children\u2019s interests. These are items that you would otherwise be throwing away.<\/p>\n\n
\n
\n<\/strong>P3a will now have PE on a Thursday and Friday. Could the children please come wearing their full PE kit on these days instead.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>We know how much our P7 pupils look forward to wearing their P7 Leavers Hoody.\u00a0 We are pleased to let you know that the Leavers Hoodies are now available to order should you wish to do so. Please have a read at the letter<\/a> regarding how to order.<\/p>\n
