Dear Parent/Carer
NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde have asked us to forward letters to all pupils regarding this year’s Flu Immunisation Programme and these will be issued today.
Please complete and return your child’s form to school by FRIDAY 1ST SEPTEMBER as these will be collected by the NHS staff on this date.
The NHS has arranged for the Flu Immunisation to be carried out at the school on the morning of Tuesday 7th November.

Primary 3/2 worked together as a team to create a class charter. We looked at the Children’s Rights (UN Convention on the Rights of the Child – UNCRC) together and decided on ones that were very important to make our classroom a happy and safe place to learn.
We decided the following rights were important to us:
Our class charter is lego themed because the Children’s Rights are the building blocks to a successful classroom!
Join up for our Parent Council AGM on Monday the 28th of August from 6-8pm at the school. Work in collaboration with the school team to get it right for our wonderful children and school community this session. We look forward to seeing you there.
Free School Meals
Lots of our families, who we believe are entitled to Free School Meals (FSM), have still not registered. As you will be aware all P1-5 pupils attending school in Scotland are entitled to free school meals.
For other pupils (P6-7), parent or carer must be in receipt of –
If your child is in P1-5 and also eligible for free school meals due to low income, you should still apply for free school meals to make sure that you get the Scottish child payment bridging payment. We would also encourage parents/carers of pupils in P6-7 to apply if you think you meet the criteria above.
Please visit the website for further information and to apply. If you require any assistance please do not hesitate to contact us at the school.

Dear Parents/Carers
We hope you’ve had a lovely Summer and look forward to welcoming you back on Wednesday the 16th of August 2023. As we begin our new session, we have made a few changes that will support transitions at the beginning and end of each day.
From Wednesday 16th August, the information below details our new arrangements. With the exception of Primary 1 on the first day, ALL children will now be dismissed at 3pm. We kindly that ask that wherever possible families walk to school to drop off and pick up pupils. This is to avoid congestion in our car park. As school finishes at 3pm and it is our expectation that all pupils are collected on time each day.
Primary 5 – Primary 7
All pupils are now able to enter and exit from the main gate (Gate 1) or the side gate (Gate 2). Soft start will now be in our playground, supervised by members of staff. The gates will open at 8:45am and children will enter their classrooms at 9am.
Primary 4
All pupils are now able to enter and exit from the main gate (Gate 1) or the side gate (gate 2). Soft start will remain as normal, with pupils able to enter the main building and make their way to class from 8:45am.
Primary 3
All pupils are now able to enter either the main gate (Gate 1) or the side gate (gate 2). Soft start will remain as normal, with pupils able to enter the main building and make their way to class from 8:45am. Primary 3 will now exit via the door nearest the main gate (Gate 1) at 3pm. Teachers will be there to dismiss and support pupils.
Primary 2
Primary 2 pupils should enter via the main gate (Gate 1) and arrangements for soft start remain the same as last year. At 3pm, children will be lined up next to the outdoor container and dismissed to their parent/carer with support of the teacher. Parents are no longer permitted to enter the playground.
Primary 1
Day 1 – Wednesday 16th August – Parents/Carers are invited to enter the main gate (Gate 1) from 9.15 and escort their child/ren to the main hall. There will be an opportunity for photographs then staff will escort each child to their classroom.
At 2:30pm, parents/carers should enter via the main gate (Gate 1) and will be directed to the classroom to collect your child where staff will be on hand to support.
Day 2 onwards
Primary 1 pupils’ should line up outside the main gate which will open at 8:45am for soft start. Staff will support your child/ren into class. At 3pm, parents/carers will enter the playground via the main gate (Gate 1) to collect their child/ren and are asked to follow the direction/procedures as outlined by staff.
In order to ensure the safety of all children, parents/carers of Primary 2 – Primary 7 pupils are NOT permitted to enter the playground. Please discuss with your child/ren your agreed arrangements for the end of the day. All children will be reminded regularly in school about our procedures for dismissal with an emphasis on, where appropriate, children waiting with the class teacher until collected or returning to the school office if an adult is not at the agreed collection point.
If it is a wet morning, Primary 5-7 pupils will be welcomed into the assembly hall where they will be supervised by school adults until the start of the school day.
Thank you in advance for your continued support.
Yours
