Red Weather Warning

Dear Parents,
I am sure you will all be aware of the Red Weather Warning scheduled for tomorrow.  We know that many school closures are in place in certain authorities.  As yet, we have had no information that South Lanarkshire are following suit however, if and when I find anything out, I will ensure that you are fully informed.  Until then we are looking forward to our Burns Supper tomorrow afternoon watch out for the photographs.
Best Regards
Mrs Neil

Wednesday

On Wednesday, our last day, we are having our annual Teddy Bear's Picnic at 11am, hopefully in the Mugga!

This year I have asked our good friend Rona from the library to tell the Teddy Bear Story.  Once it finishes we will have our picnic.  A school picnic lunch is available as always however, if you would prefer your child to come with a teddy bears 'special picnic' please send it  in.  Staff also!
Would you also send in your child's favourite teddy with them (labelled) as we have a 'cutest teddy' competition that Rona will judge (Staff also!)

The parents of the leavers are welcome to come to see the P7 pupils leave our Greenburn family for the last time.  They will be piped out of the school on the red carpet!  Please come along for around 12.40pm, it will be a lovely farewell.

Best Regards
Maria Neil

BBQ Tonight 6-8pm

?BBQ 6-8pm tonight ?

To our whole school community
A  big big plea for everyone to come to our BBQ tonight.  We are having it inside as the weather is so changeable.  If it is dry children may go outside.   The disco dome and face painting will be in the foyer and food/tombola etc will be in the dining hall.  For families facing hardship, the BBQ is a donation/ honesty box.   This is a family night which happens to raise funds.  Not a fundraiser.  No one will make any judgement or take any notice  if very little goes into the 'honesty box', so please do not let cost put you off coming along.  
There will be raffles , tombolas, brick a brack and 'guess the number of balloons in Mrs Neils car' etc
The parents have done an absolutely  incredible job of organising this with little help from school.  Please come along and support this wonderful event

Message from Mrs Neil

Important message from Mrs Neil

Dear Parents and Carers,
Currently in both Greenburn School and Maxwellton School there is a stomach bug outbreak.  Can I ask everyone to be particularly vigilant for diarrhoea or vomitting and if this occurs please keep your child at home.  The outbreak is amoung both staff and pupils.  As you are aware we do not like to send children home unless we absolutely have to, however, during this time we will be adhering very closely to the policy of 48hrs after the last bout.  We would love all our staff and children to have a very happy and healthy holiday therefore I am asking very kindly for your cooperation in this matter.

St Andrews Day

Tomorrow (Thursday) we will be celebrating St Andrew’s Day in classes. Children can wear tartan if they wish. ??????????????

Inset day

This is a reminder that Monday is an inset day. The school is closed to all pupils. 
We will see all the children back at school on Tuesday morning. 
Have a good long weekend.
