Road Safety – At a meeting on Thursday 15th December attended by representatives from the Governors, Parents and Friends Association, Staff and the Local Council the topic of road safety and the safe access to school was discussed. As we have had various meetings in the past in relation to our concerns about the safety of our children coming and going from school but have had no measures put in place to ensure safety or reduce the risk of a serious accident happening. It was decided that as a community we need to draw attention to our concerns through a petition. Therefore, as a starting point to raise awareness of our concerns can we ask that you sign the following petition – https://chng.it/wjQx94NYck Please share with family and friends. We will update you on the outcome of this in due course.

Primary 1 Nativity – Thanks to all the pupils who performed at the Nativity Play on Sunday. They were fantastic and behaved brilliantly in the chapel. Thank you to all the staff who worked so hard and contributed to the success of the play.
