What’s on at Stane – Monday 21st to Friday 25th August 2017

The first two days of the 2017/18 school year have been wonderful. The children have been working hard and have all come back to school with an ‘attitude to learn’. Mr. Clark has been most impressed with the attitude of each pupil.

We had our first assembly on Friday morning and sung lots of songs together – P1 pupils at beautifully and were all joining in with the words and actions.

We have a three week rotation on our dinner menu and we will be on Week 2 of the Spring/Summer menu this week. Please talk over the options with your child and help them decide what they will order:
