Dates for the Year
We are all hoping that this year will be more predictable than last and so we have set as many dates as we can for the school year. These dates are now available on the calendar page of the website which you can reach using the menu above or follow this link:
Staffing News
Mrs Dowie (supply PSA) was successful at interview today and will be remaining with her in her current hours up until the summer holidays at least.
Restrictions Easing
We are able to ease our restrictions on keeping classes separate and you will likely start to hear your child talking about playing with children from other classes over the coming week. Any parent who has concerns about this easement should contact Mrs Jess directly.
The majority of Covid mitigations remain in place and we do need to ask you to continue to be vigilant of symptoms in your household. If your child develops any of the following symptoms they must not come to school. They and all other members of the family should stay at home as soon as their symptoms start, self-isolate, and take a PCR test. Find out more on NHS Inform. The symptoms of coronavirus (Covid-19) are:
- a new continuous cough and/or
- a high temperature and/or
- a loss of, or change in, taste or smell (anosmia).
If you or your children test positive, Test and Protect will contact you to provide tailored advice on what to do. This advice is an extract from Fife Council’s FAQs on Schools and Covid.
