Cuthbertson Primary School
This is our final newsletter of the 2021-2022 session. Our next newsletter will be at the end of August 2022.
Playground
You will notice some further space restrictions in the playground between now and the end of term. This is allow work to begin on the multi-use games area (MUGA) that will be located towards the Coplaw Street end of the playground. It is hoped that by starting this work now, both the MUGA and the rest of the resurfacing will be complete for the children returning in August.
Some items that the school have purchased such as a new gazebo, play fort and shade sail will be installed during the month of August.
Parent Council
The Parent Council hope to bring back their popular coffee mornings after the summer holidays. We will keep you posted on this. As always, if you wish to become involved in the Parent Council, please contact me via the school office or speak with our Parent Council chairperson – Mrs Aishah Haq.
We would like to thank Mosey Uddin for her enormous contribution to the Parent Council and the life of the school for the past 7 years. Mosey’s son Raees leaves for secondary school at the end of term so Mosey will be giving up her role as Parent Council Treasurer. Thank you Mosey.
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. Failure to select meals in advance through Parent Pay may result in your child not having access to their preferred choice of meal.
Please contact the school office if you have any problems as the school will no longer be able to accept cash payments.
P7 pupils will have their Parent Pay accounts transferred to their secondary school
Parentsportal
Cuthbertson Primary School goes live with Parents Portal on June 6th. This will help engagement with school, improve communication direct to parents and provide convenience.
Further details have been emailed to parents and posted to Twitter.
Reports
Progress reports for your child will be issued in June.
Staffing
Staffing for next session is still being finalised. You will be informed of your child’s new teacher during the month of June. This is subject to change as staffing changes can happen over the summer holidays.
