I hope that you are looking forward to the long weekend. The
School and Nursery are both closed on Monday 16 September. We look forward to
seeing Parents and Carers of P2 to P7 on Tuesday Evening for our Meet the
Teacher Event.
Thank you to Parents and Carers of Primary One for attending
our Information Evening last Tuesday and we hope you found the evening helpful.
We enjoyed the opportunity to meet you.

Playground Safety
The playground is incredibly busy and we want to ensure everyone is safe. Whilst we would encourage parents not to bring hot drinks into the playground, if you do, can you please ensure it is sealed with a suitable lid and that you take extra care when entering and exiting the playground.
Playground Congestion
There have been a number of
congestion issues at the north corner of the building which has affected the
P1/2, 2A and 2B lines. In order to ensure the P2s can enter the school safely
and follow their lines, the P1/2, 2A and 2B lines will be moving to the front
of the school. They will still enter through the same door. A letter with the
new layout has gone out today and staff will be in the playground on Tuesday
morning with signs showing classes where to line up. We appreciate that space
in the playground is limited and we would kindly ask you to stand against the
walls and gates and not beside your child in their line.
