House Competition!!

The House and Vice House Captains have an assembly coming up and are looking forward to inspiring their members to earn housepoints and glory!

They shared this competition at Assembly this week as they thought everyone might like some thinking time over the holidays.

You may notice my Unicorn hat and diamonds. The House Captains made me an Honorary House Captain of the Unicorns and said I could have diamonds on my badge.

Miss Finlayson is my Vice House Captain and according to the House Captains has to do all the work whilst I do the fun stuff! Sounds like a good job!

Snack – Just 1 healthy item Please!!

At the moment, pupils are eating their snack after play time in the classroom. In previous years, pupils would eat their snack outside during morning break-time. This keeps our classrooms tidy. Break-time lasts 15 minutes and we want most of this time to be playing, rather than eating.

To help your child prepare for this return, please can you make sure your child has one item for snack that they would be able to carry outside with them. This should ideally be one an item of fruit and something they can eat quickly. Thank you! ðŸ˜Š

Information for Families

Scottish Child Payment is a new benefit being introduced by the Scottish Government to tackle child poverty. It is for low income families already in receipt of qualifying benefits. To start with, Scottish Child Payment will be available to families with children under six years of age only. We remain committed to rolling out this benefit to families with children under 16 years of age by the end of 2022.

Scottish Child Payment will open for applications in November 2020, with first payments being made from the end of February 2021. Low-income families with a child under six will be able to apply for £10 per child, per week – equivalent to £520 per year. There are no limits on the number of eligible children supported by Scottish Child Payment.

Social Security Scotland recognises that people communicate and engage in lots of different ways.
