Dear Parents
As you will all be aware, the coughs and colds have started already.  Can I please remind parents that we have very vulnerable pupils in our school.  If your child is not well enough to take part in their learning in school, I have no choice but to call for them to be picked up.  We hope that you understand the complexities of the various needs within each class.  Also, we have no clerical staff in the office this week.  I will be answering the phones if I am in the office.  Please leave a message if you are unable to get us and we will try to call back as soon as we can. 

The school mobile will be available for text/calls  also  Number 07881310582
Many thanks for your understanding 
Best Regards
Maria Neil

Dear Parents & Carers
It is with deep sadness that  write to  tell you  that one of the boys in primary five,  Harry Paterson's  mum Marianne, passed away during the school holidays.  The staff are making sure that he is getting extra hugs.  At the time of her service Harry will  will release a balloon to symbolise her passing.  We know you would want us to pass on your condolences to the family and flowers will be sent to the crematorium.
Best regards
Mrs Neil

Hello parents/carers,
Just to say that there is a bit of confusion regarding blended diets.  The school will be facilitating this in the future however, staff require to be trained for each individual child by our ASN nursing team, before this can take place.  This team is very much reduced this session so timings for any training may be delayed.  We understand that this can be frustrating, please bear with us until training is completed and guidelines are compiled appropriately.
Best Regards

Hello everyone, what a day we have had today!!  The children really enjoyed themselves at the beach party.  The day started with a visit from the donkeys and the ponies.  There were games etc set up in the outdoor area inside the classrooms there was LOTS of sand.  We had a 'Magic Mirror' which took a photo of the children at the event.  You can put this in your memory boxes.  We had a bbq lunch and ice cream in the afternoon.  There was a wee hiccup with the bouncy castle however,  because the pupils were promised,  one of our parents unknowingly saved the day.  They had donated a bouncy castle last year which had never been used,  we got it out and the children loved it.  I am so sorry, but the children will all have come home very dirty! A dirty child is a happy child as they say...
I don't know if Ill get the ketchup stains out myself!

For tomorrow, you are all invited to our leavers assembly at 1.15pm  Bring the hankies and your singing voice for some audience participation.
It is so sad to see our P7's go but we wish them all the very best in their new school.  We just borrow them from you for a wee bit!

Best Regards 
Maria Neil

Beach Party

Beach Party tomorrow ?️☀️???
Remember to send the children to school in shorts and t-shirt/summer clothes tomorrow for our annual beach party.
We will have the paddling pools out so a spare change of clothes in the bags will be helpful. 
Hopefully the sun stays out ??
