Last week, in Ben Lawers, we discussed our rights and worked together to choose four rights for our clan charter. We talked about how we can respect these rights as right holders, and how our teacher, Miss Robertson can respect our rights as the duty bearer.
As our clan charter has a Disney theme, we each drew our favourite Disney character as our way of signing the charter.
We wonder which characters you can spot?
Please see the attached slides from the parent presentation last night. Thank you so much to all parents who attended.

We would like to inform parents and carers about arrangements for handing in any new or existing pupil medication for the upcoming school session.

Time: Between 9:00am and 11:00am
If your child requires medication to be stored and administered in school, please come along during this time to hand it in.
This helps us ensure that all medical information is accurate, up to date, and in line with school and local authority guidelines.
If you are unable to attend during this time, please contact the school office to make alternative arrangements.
Thank you for your support in helping us keep all children safe and well.

We have been asked to share details of the next Messy Church session taking place this weekend.
Messy Church is a fun, relaxed way for families to come together and enjoy crafts, activities, stories and time to connect. It’s a lovely opportunity for children and adults to explore creativity and spend time together in a welcoming environment.
The next session will take place this Sunday, and everyone is very welcome to come along. Please note that this will be the final session before the summer break.
If your family is looking for something enjoyable and community-focused to do this weekend, this could be a great option!
Further details can be found on the attached flyer that has been shared with the school.
We hope everyone who attends has a fantastic time, and we wish the organisers all the best for a successful session.

We are absolutely delighted to celebrate the fantastic achievements of some of our talented learners in the recent P5–7 Gala Art Competition!
A huge congratulations to our Ness clan winners:
These are incredible accomplishments, and we are so proud of the creativity, effort and skill shown in their artwork.
A very special congratulations also goes to Advik, who was named the overall winner of the competition! This is a remarkable achievement, and a true reflection of the talent and dedication shown.
Events like this are a wonderful opportunity for our learners to express themselves, and it’s fantastic to see their hard work recognised and celebrated within the wider community.
Well done to you all – we are so proud of you!
