Week 16 at Heathery Knowe PS and Nursery Class

I hope all families had an enjoyable Christmas and New Year.  We are looking forward to welcoming all children back to school for the start of the new term.

Staffing update

Miss Meek will teach P2/1 in Room 2 and Mr Loveday will follow Miss Meek’s flexible teaching timetable for the remainder of the session.

Mr Loveday will teach P3/4 in Room 5 on a Thursday and Friday. Mrs Gray has been working additional days to cover and will revert back to working Monday – Thursday from the end of January.

Mr Loveday will teach P2 in Room 3 one day each week and P3 in Room 4 one and a half days per week. This provides additional targeted support for learners and covers the class teacher’s planning and preparation time.

Primary 1 Registration

South Lanarkshire Council is registering pupils for Primary One .  New pupils can be registered using an online form. Parents must register for their catchment school even if they are making a placing request or deferring their child’s start date. The link to school registration is below:

https://www.southlanarkshire.gov.uk/info/200186/primary_school_information/392/enrolling_your_child_for_school

Within the form, there is a question enquiring about whether parents are making a placing request to a school of their choice. By clicking yes, it asks parents to name the school the placing request is being made to. Schools cannot make a placing request application on behalf of the parents. It is necessary to fill out a placing request form using the link below if you do not wish your child to go to their catchment school.

Once a child is registered for Heathery Knowe PS, I will send a confirmation email to let parents know that their application has been received.  We are looking forward to meeting new Heathery Knowe pupils starting school in August 2022.

Secondary School registration

Parents of Primary 7 pupils have already received a letter letting them know where their child is registered for secondary school. Placing requests can be made to a school of choice using the link below:

Thank you for your continued support.

Kind regards

Kirsty Duff
