School Transport Survey

“The Passenger Transport Service is very keen to hear your views regarding both the transport provided and any contacts with the team.  There are two surveys to be completed depending on the type of transport your child(ren) use.

We appreciate that you may not have used this transport so much lately but your views are very important to us.  The links to the surveys are as follows;

School Bus Survey for Pupils and Parents 2020/21

School Taxi and Minibus Transport Survey 2020/21 .

Thank you for taking the time to complete the relevant survey.”

NURSEY JOURNALS

Good Morning, and hope you all had a lovely weekend.

We hope that you are all enjoying the activities posted on the Journals each week.  There has been lots of engagement and positive feedback. Thank you for this.  It is our aim to engage with parents/carers about their child’s learning as often as possible and for that reason, we ask that you continue to interact with the daily tasks.  It is great to see parents/ carers giving a ‘thumbs up’, commenting or sharing pictures of what they have been doing at home.

As we are unable to see the children every day, we are unable to observe the learning through our usual interactions with them.  For that reason, we ask that when you are interacting with the Journals, that you leave a comment about the learning.   For example, tell us your child managed to count to 6, missed out 7 then continued to 11, that they could tell you what they think might happen next in the story, that they had more peas on their plate than chips.  All these little things allow us to build a picture of where your child is in their learning, record it and plan for next steps.

If you would like to speak to a member of staff about this please don’t hesitate to contact the school on, 01501 740452.

Take care and stay safe.

Glow and Microsoft Teams – Important Information for Parents and Carers

“Glow is the national online service funded by Scottish Government and provided by Education Scotland. This learning environment provides learners and educators across Scotland with access to a wide set of innovative digital services and resources designed to enhance learning and teaching across the whole curriculum.

Access to Glow is restricted to learners and educators who are issued with an account that can provide access to a number of different online services such as Microsoft Office 365G Suite for Education and Glow Blogs.

Online safety is of utmost importance in the delivery and management of Glow. Glow is not an open system, and should be viewed as an extension of the school/education establishment. Only learners, and adults who require access in relation to their role as teaching or support staff, are provided with Glow accounts. All adults will have been Disclosure Scotland checked at minimum prior to their individual Glow account being created. Therefore parents/carers logging in using their child’s Glow (and Teams) account and using Glow (and Teams) is not permitted; and in addition, schools should not issue children’s Glow accounts directly to parents.”The whole article can be found at https://glowconnect.org.uk/about-glow/glow-for-parents/

Weather Warning

Dear Parent/Carer,

If your child is currently attending school, please be aware that heavy snow has been forecast for the next few days.  Please listen to Radio Forth or check the West Lothian Council Facebook page for advice on school closures.  Staff will be making every attempt to get to school, however this may be delayed due to road conditions.  Please make sure you leave your child in the care of a staff member, do not leave them unattended at the foyer or in the playground in case staff have been delayed.

 

Thank you
