A huge thank you to Alan Sawers from the company ALVIC, for his kind donation of selection boxes to every pupil in Riverbrae. A big thanks also to Kerr (Santa) who helped to create magical memories by visiting Riverbrae in his home made sleigh, which travelled around our playgrounds to see each class.
Scottish government have confirmed that primary and secondary school-aged pupils who would be entitled to receive a free school meal on the basis of low income are eligible for an additional £100 winter hardship payment and £27 free school meals payment for the festive break. As all pupils at Riverbrae receive a free school meal regardless of their family’s circumstances, we are encouraging anyone who is on a low income to apply for a free school meal so they can receive this payment. You can apply at – www.renfrewshire.gov.uk/freeschoolmealsandclothinggrants
Please note that the free school meals service will remain as is at Riverbrae and this process is just to ensure we can make a payment directly into the bank account of eligible families. Anyone who has previously applied for a free school meal for this school year (2020-21) will receive the money before Christmas. Anyone who applies between Monday 30 November and Friday 18 December will receive the money by mid-January at the latest.
Nursery children of low-income parents aren’t entitled to the winter hardship payment, but are entitled to the £27 free school meal payment to cover the festive break. If you are eligible, please apply at www.renfrewshire.gov.uk/freeschoolmealsandclothinggrants
Further information on the COVID winter hardship payment (£100 per child) can be found on Scottish Government’s website.
A reminder that Riverbrae School closes at 2.30pm on Friday 18th December 2020 , we will be opened again on Wednesday 6th January 2021.
Our Early Learning Childcare Centre closes on Friday 24th at 2:30, re-opening Wednesday 6th January 2021.
Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year from all your friends at Riverbrae.
RSNO and Children’s Classic Concerts Christmas Show
Join RSNO and Children’s Classic Concerts for a free family Christmas show, ‘The Night Before Christmas,’ this Saturday. Kids and grown-ups can watch and sing along as Owen Gunnell makes a mad-dash attempt to organise his Christmas festivities after discovering he slept through the first 12 days of December! The story follows the CCC presenter as he scrambles to organise his celebrations and even discovers he forgot to write his letter to Santa. With a little bit of help from the RSNO musicians and the RSNO Junior Chorus, Owen endeavours to get sorted on time, and get everyone in the Christmas spirit along the way.
‘The Night Before Christmas’ will premiere live on the STV Player and the RSNO and CCC’s Facebook pages and YouTube channels on 12 December 2020 at 2pm. It will be available to watch for 30 days.
A trailer for the show can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMDl5F43xL8

Dear Parent / Carer
At this time of year, we are pulling together a school newsletter and the school Christmas show.
Unfortunately, we do not have all the Media Consent forms for photographs or video.
As this is a one time event can I ask that you contact the school by the 11 December if you do not want your child to appear in any photographs or Christmas concert.
The Concert and newsletter will only be available to Riverbrae parents and carers via a link.
Many thanks for your help in this matter
