Cuthbertson Primary School
February 2022 Newsletter
Covid Guidelines:
We no longer require to minimise groupings of children in school so our assemblies will return to their old format of P1-3 and P4-7 rather than by stage. All other restrictions remain in place at the moment and I will update you when I receive updated advice.
Uniform:
Under current Covid guidelines we are required to open windows for ventilation. If your child is feeling it colder in school and would like to wear a hoodie or sweatshirt etc. over their uniform in class, this is perfectly acceptable.
Twitter:
Please follow us on @cuthbertsonpri for Twitter updates.
Parent Pay:
Parent Pay is now live and the council requires that parents/carers use Parent Pay to pay for items such as lunches and trips. You will have received instructions on how to do this. Please contact the school office if you have any problems as the school will no longer be able to accept cash payments.
School Lunches:
From March 2022, children will be expected to select their lunch choice at home, prior to coming to school. Guidance on how to do this will follow when we receive it. You will require to access Parent Pay to do this.
School Playground:
Miss Kennedy and I met with a landscape architect last week as a green space is planned for the playground. Unfortunately, the resurfacing of the remainder of the playground will not happen until the summer holidays. We have received confirmation that the fenced off games area will also be installed during the summer holidays. We are in the process of ordering new benches, planters and a shelter for the playground and the children will begin to see these items being installed in the coming months.
Dates for Your Diary:
Friday 2 April – School closes at 2.30 for holiday
Tuesday 19 April – School re-opens
Kind regards Lesley Murrie , Head Teacher
