Fire Evacuation (D Allan)
Please be reminded that if the fire alarm sounds you should, under clear instructions from your teacher, leave the classroom calmly and in single file. Leave your bag in the class but take your jacket. Your teacher will direct you to the nearest designated exit and then to the evacuation muster area in front of the assembly hall. Walk briskly but do not run.

The arrangements have changed and in the interests of good order, you must stand still and quiet, facing towards the Assembly Hall in the clearly marked House/Yeargroup box. For example if you are in S3 and in Carlyle House, go to “Carlyle 3” in an orderly fashion and stand quietly. Teachers will be allocated a House group to supervise. Only when it is safe to do so, you will be instructed to re-enter the school building. This will be done in a set order, clearly signalled by Senior staff.

We are required to do practice evacuation drills and we will have one of these this term. Many thanks.

S6 Students looking for Saltire hours (Ms Mahr)
I am looking for one or two S6 students to update the Kind Heart Stars display on a Friday afternoon every week. This would initially involve creating a new laminated display and then updating the names each week. It would be a great way to get some extra Saltire hours in – please see Ms Mahr by the end of the week to express interest!

Just as a reminder, Adam Smith is Mr Sanderson and Miss Lipton, Carlyle is Mr Dick and Miss Steedman, and Oswald is Miss Hay and Miss Osborne. Interviews will take place week beginning 6 September. If you have any questions, please see your House Leader. Good luck!
