Christmas Hamper Letter updated

All P7 children should have received a text message regarding ordering a leavers hoodie along with a letter. The last date to order these is Friday 10th December. If you are wanting to order after this date the template will need to be remade so there will be an additional cost.

Miss Hendry has organised the hoodies with the company, if you have any queries please call the school office and ask to speak to her between 9am and 1pm.

Tomorrow the whole school will be walking to the Pearce Institute in Govan to see their pantomime, ‘A Christmas Carol.’

Children will have an early lunch and be escorted by school staff to walk to Govan Cross and back. Children do not need to bring anything with them and will be back at school for normal leaving times at end of day.

Please ensure your child has sensible footwear and a warm and waterproof jacket for the walk there and back as there are snow and strong winds forecast. We will assess the weather prior to leaving school and if we feel children and staff would be at risk we will cancel the trip.

A thorough Covid Risk Assessment has been carried out with the venue.

We have been alerted that there will be a large scale event happening on Edminston Drive on Wednesday 3rd November around the time we normally dismiss the children.

The local authority has advised us that we should dismiss our children early due to the volume of people expected to gather in the area. On Wednesday children can be collected as below, please note that all children will exit the Hinshelwood Drive gate and it may be difficult to access the school by car. 

• P1-P3 + older siblings at 220-230pm
• P4/3- P7 will be dismissed at 230pm
• Children must be collected by an adult, due to the high volume of crowds within the area. If you feel happy for your child to walk home alone please call the office. No child will be allowed to leave without an adult unless you have contacted us.
• Nursery parents please speak to Charlene who will share arrangements for our Nursery children
