Back to School!

We would like to welcome everyone back to school and extend a special welcome to our new pupils joining us especially our P1s. We hope you all had a very enjoyable Summer Holiday and are looking forward to starting a new term in Clare!

September is a very busy time for everyone and we would just like to take this opportunity to remind you of a few points

• School begins at 9am and runs until 2pm for P1-3 and 3.15pm for P4-7
• Children must be collected by an adult from the pedestrian gate and are not permitted to cross the road alone
•  School dinners cost £2.30 per day and we ask that dinner money is sent in at the beginning of each week or on the first day back after an absence.  Please try to send correct change.  Money pouches/envelopes will be available from the School Office
• School Dinner Menu is available under Parent Info section of the website
• Healthy break is available from Mrs Kelly Monday-Thursday at a cost of £1.20 per week and is payable each Friday.  Healthy break will begin on Monday 5^th September and £1.20 should be paid on Friday 2^nd September.
• Please ensure that all pieces of school uniform are clearly labelled with your child’s name as jumpers and cardigans can be very easily confused and misplaced.
• Parking – please do not park on the zig-zag lines at 3.15pm as this area needs to be kept clear for the school bus so that children can be boarded safely. We remind drivers to exercise extreme caution when parking and moving off around the school gates. Home times are extremely busy with pedestrians and other road users also.  Only staff cars are permitted within the school car park.
• Please note the holiday list has been amended from the list issued in June.  With a change to accommodate the school trip to Edinburgh taking place in April.
