We have created this area of our blog to help us to support the children and families who will transfer from nursery to Netherton Primary School this coming session.
We encourage parents and carers to follow us on our official School Twitter page (@NethertonPS) and to regularly check in with this area of the blog for updates. We have also made a dedicated Twitter page for families of our New Primary 1 pupils @npstransition21.
If you have any further questions please email ht@netherton.n-lanark.sch.uk and we will reply to you as soon as possible.

N.B. Permission to share these videos has been kindly given by publishers during this school closure period and have been shared in line with this.
