Dear Parent

Welcome back to another school year and a special welcome to new
children and parents joining the school. I hope everyone will have a

with a longer letter next week when I have more time to write.

regular management duties in the school and nursery.
Support Staff
There are no changes to the class based support staff this session. I am
pleased to let you know that Valerie will be joined in the office by
Miss Linsey Miller who will be replacing Carole. As she will not be able
to take up post until the beginning of September at the earliest,
Valerie will be doing some extra hours each day in the meantime. The
office will have someone available to help you either by phone or in
person from 9.00 until 11.00 and from 1.00 to 3.00 each day. Uniform and
routine matters can only be dealt with during these hours. If you have
an emergency during the middle session of the day and must get in touch,
please try to be patient as I will do my best to answer the door and
phone, but there may be some delays.
School Lunches
The menu will be remaining the same until October when there are
proposed changes. I have attached a copy for your information. We are
currently on week one. There has been an increase in price from �1.50 to
�1.55 per day effective as of the beginning of term. I would be obliged
if you could try to give your child the correct money whenever possible
for their lunch. You can of course pay weekly at �7.75 with any unused
money carried over to the next week.
Primary 1 Photograph - will be
taken on Monday 20 August at 10.00.
Swimming - Primary 7 will have
swimming on Friday mornings this term.
