Week 3 menus coming up!
OUTDOOR LEARNING
As you know, Outdoor Learning is one area we wish to prioritise in our school improvements this year. Listening to the views of pupils, parents and staff, we aim to make more use of the local environment as we take more learning outside.
As a result, we are sending permission slips home today that will cover local walks all year. We will always notify you by text or email if we decide to take a class out at the last minute, but in this way you won’t need to complete written permission each time.
Please return the large permission letter that will come home in school bags today and return to school before the October Week holiday, as we aim to start this as soon as we are back!
INTERIM REPORTS
Short written Interim Reports will come home in school bags on Monday (9th October). These will give you a brief overview of your child’s learning in Term 1. I must say, I am delighted at the progress all pupils have made so far this year. Thank you for your support in this.
Remember we will hold our Parents’ Night on 23rd November, where you will have the chance to meet your child’s teacher in-person.
RESPECT ME – OUR ANTI-BULLYING COMMITTEE
We have a range of Pupil Voice Committees running this term. This week our Respect Me Committee led our Assembly and launched a competition. We look forward to seeing all the creative ideas coming back next week. We are happy if you want to work on this with your child at home.
HARVEST FESTIVAL
As we told you a few weeks ago, we are looking forward to holding our annual Harvest Festival on Thursday of next Week. All donations of tinned or dried goods will be collected from Monday and distributed to those most in need in our community next Friday.
CHS PARENTS EVENING
P.7 parents are invited to attend Coatbridge High School for an information evening on Tuesday 10th October. Due to numbers, this is restricted to 2 people from the same family (i.e. a parent and a child or 2 parents). An email went out earlier this week with the details of this event.
PARKING COMPLAINT
OCTOBER WEEK HOLIDAY
Don’t forget we stop next Friday at the usual time for our October Week holiday.
