Important information regarding Parent/Carer Visits:
We are looking forward to welcoming parents and carers into school on Thursday 22nd March for our Parent/Carer Visits. As stated in the letter families received back in October, the time slot you will be given for this visit remains the same as it was at the Interim Parent/Carer Visits earlier in the school year. On Tuesday you will receive a slip with the allocated time slot for you to come along and speak to your child’s class teacher. Once again, we will be looking for some Primary Six and Seven volunteers to help us keep to our tight schedule. This proved to be highly effective at our Interim Parent/Carer Visits and the feedback we received from families regarding this was very positive.
