Tomorrow (17/1) is the final day of Primary 1 enrolment.
A reminder that enrolment appointments take place next Monday, Tuesday and Friday. If you are unsure of your appointment or require one please speak to the nursery or the office on Monday.
A reminder that the Primary 1 Reading and SHRE Workshop takes place tonight at 6:30pm. P1 parents should drop their child at the disco then make their way up to the Primary 1/2 classroom. This is an extremely worthwhile and informative talk and we hope to see as many people as possible there.
A few parents have been asking about the arrangements for Primary 1 on Monday morning. The children should come along to the school with their parent/s at 9.30am on Monday morning. Parents can go to the class with their child to take a photograph if they want to. For the first day only, they will be collected at 12pm from the hall.
Please note that the children will be given a packed lunch from the canteen for their first week which they can take home with them. We will be arranging a canteen lunch for them during their first week and will let you know when as soon as we can.
Mrs. Holmes and Miss Telfer are really excited about the first day and have been planning lots of fun experiences for the children.
