P1 Fun Times with Buddies
Our P6/7 and P7 pupils met their new P1 Buddies today and got to spend some time getting to know each other to welcome our new pupils to our school. A great time was had at break time this morning with lots of smiling faces. Lots of thumbs up from the P1’s.
Breakfast Club News
As part of the approved Budget Motion in February 2018, the Council agreed the expansion of breakfast services to all primary schools.
The cost for one child per day is £1.00. There will be no charge for pupils in receipt of free school meals. There is an agreed payment structure for families who have more than one child at school and wish them to make use of the breakfast club. The till will have 3 breakfast buttons. One child £1, 2 children £1.50 and 3 children £1.80 per day.
Please ensure you have completed a Free School Meals Entitlement Form and sent it on to First Stop Shop, Cumbernauld if you feel you may qualify for this service.
Staff within the Service are currently working to identify the children who as part of the universal P1-3 free school meals are not required to pay for the breakfast club if used.
Our breakfast club will commence on Monday 20th August from 8.15am.
