Good Morning,
The children from p7 who will be going to Bathgate Academy will start their transition on Tuesday 6th of June and their last day will be Friday the 9th June. They should still come to Murrayfield on Monday as usual and wear their normal school uniform throughout their transition dates. The bus passes have arrived and will be given to the children on Monday. The school bus leaves at 8am outside the Mill center and they should arrive at Bathgate Academy at 8.30 for registration each morning.
Children who wish to buy their lunches should take money with them as they will not be given their money cards until during or after the holidays. I would suggest that children bring their own snack with them as the tuck shop at break time can be very busy and a little overwhelming at first. Children have been given their booklets which has their timetables and classes in them. Please make sure that they take their P.E kits on the appropriate day and on Thursday morning for their Sports Day. Mrs Millar and I will see them at Bathgate academy on the Tuesday morning and I will also see them at sports day on the Thursday morning.
Although it is a voting day on Thursday 8th June, Bathgate Academy will be open as usual. Murrayfield is a polling station so any p7 pupils not attending Bathgate transition week will have the day off school.
I am sure everyone will have an amazing week and will enjoy every minute of their transition. It is a wonderful opportunity to make new friends and get used to their timetables and the layout of the High School.
Enjoy it P7! You will be amazing.
Have a lovely weekend.
Miss Moir
