No Uniform Day – 13th February<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

We will be holding a no-uniform day on 13th February. Every family is asked to send a donation in with their child – please pay what you can. The payment will be collected in class and counted at the office with all funds raised going to local charity For the Love of the Child who are travelling to India in February to work with children\u00a0 and families in tribal villages who migrate to work in brick kilns. More information is available here:<\/p>\n

For the Love of the Child is a charity founded by parents of the school and so is close to all our hearts at Wormit Primary School.<\/p>\n

Flass Road Closure – week beginning 5th February<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Flass Road is going to be closed all week in week beginning 5th February for essential work. The contractors will provide access for school taxis at drop off and pick up times and staff arriving and leaving at those times will be able to get in and out of the car park. There will be limited access at all other times of the day and staff arriving or planning to leave outwith those time should be prepared to park on the main road or somewhere else nearby and walk the rest of the way.\u00a0Parents will not be able to park on Flass Road at all during that week and there will continue to be no access to the school car park for parents. Please walk to school or park at a distance and walk the final section. Please note there will be increased parking on the streets around the school and I must ask everyone not to block driveways or park on double yellow lines or zig zags. I think it will be a challenging week and I thank you all in advance for your patience.<\/p>\n

Free school meals are available for ALL children in P1-P5 automatically, with no criteria to meet and no need to apply.
