Anti-Bullying Week 16th to 20th November 2020
You can find our Respect for All policy here. This was written in line with Renfrewshire Council’s Anti Bullying Policy, which you can view here.
We created the policy as a Joint Campus as our school communities work so closely together and we believe that everyone who works here, learns here and visits here, deserves to be treated with respect.
All our staff, pupils and parents were consulted in creating this policy and we have captured their views throughout. We continue to implement our policy in our daily actions and will review it as part of our school improvement cycle.
Our Together logo was launched last Christmas when we merged the winning pupil designs – we think it really represents our school campus vision:
Every day, we work and play, learning ways to get along.
Finding out, what life’s about, everybody moving on.
Children in Need
There are no formal activities or fundraising organised for Children in Need tomorrow. However, if your child would like to dress up, or wear non-uniform this will be fine.
Covid19 Update – November

Busy bees 🐝
Primary 3 have been using the maths zone to reinforce their addidition and subtraction skills. We have enjoyed setting ourselves challenges.
We have been exploring 2D and 3D shapes.
We enjoyed making posters to display what we have learned.
At the language zone we have been developing our co-operative learning skills. We are learning to work well as part of a group.
At the art zone we have been using a variety of media to create beautiful artwork.
We enjoyed making cards for a random person in our class. We left them a kind message.
We checked our wishes from term one and shared if our wish had came true and we made new wishes for the new term.
We have also been working on describing our emotions and sharing the triggers for our emotions. We are learning how to regulate our emotions independently.
Keep up the good work Primary 3 you are super stars ✨ 🦄 💖

Guidance Letter to Parents/Carers re: Face coverings
As you will be aware, the Scottish Government has now confirmed details of the new protection level system to help stop the spread of coronavirus, and Renfrewshire has been placed in Level 3.
This brings with it some extra protection measures for our schools and nurseries.
The main changes relate to the use of face coverings from Monday 2 November and I would like to ask for your support as we implement these measures.
We would also ask that all parents or visitors entering school premises (building or playground), including drop-off or pick-up, to please wear a face covering.
As always, the safety of your children is the single biggest priority for us. We continue to follow all national guidance designed to keep our school community safe and we really appreciate your support and co-operation in helping to reduce the risk of covid-19 transmission within our schools.
You can read more about what we already have in place to ensure our schools and nurseries are safe on our Schools Health and Safety webpage. And more on what to do if you have a suspected or confirmed case of Covid-19 in your household can be found on our Covid-19 Schools webpage.
