Wearing face coverings
Following on from the new guidance issued, face coverings will be worn by adults in school when they are in communal areas shared with pupils.
We ask that parents and carers still continue to wear face coverings when collecting children from the school grounds. Thank you for your support.
Scottish Maths Challenge Success
A massive well done to our Primary 7 pupils who competed in this year’s Scottish Maths Challenge. I had the privilege of making some lovely phone calls today to congratulate the prize winners. We have 1 x bronze prize winner, 2 x silver prize winners and 1 x gold prize winner! A massive congratulations to all the winners and well done to everyone who entered – we are so very proud of you all!!

School App!!
The countdown is on. Our school app is now available for download and will be formally launched in a matter of days 🙂 More information will be available tomorrow at our open afternoon but in case you are as excited as we are – you can download the app for both android and ios now (paid for by our parent council, thank you!)
Open Afternoon
As mentioned in our monthly newsletter, we will be opening our doors tomorrow afternoon for you to join your child’s class. This is an opportunity for your to see your child, their friends and their teacher during a school day and get a feeling of what school is like. You may enter through the main school doors, or P1-P4 may enter through the P2 door and P5-P7 may enter through the P5-7 door. We know that not everyone can manage along to school – no matter when we plan it – but hope to see many of you, or someone from the extended family. Doors will be open from 2 – 3pm.
Termly Learning Overviews
Please check your emails as term 1 termly overviews have all been sent this morning. If you have not received yours, please contact the school to ensure your email address is accurate. Many thanks.
