We were delighted to welcome Zoe and Kevin in to our assembly this afternoon to learn about how Orkney Drugs Dogs collaobrates as a charity with our local police and businesses to help keep everyone safe.
It was fabulous to hear about how the dogs are trained and about all the kit they use. It was also great to see a wee video about Zoe at work and at play and how important seeing Zoe in our local community is to help everyone get to know the important work that they support.
Dear Families,
It has been a tricky morning here at the school making sure we all got in safe and are cosy in the building! And it seems every time we look out the window we see snow showers and not the forecast rain.
We have made the decision to postpone this evening’s Parent Contact appointments until Tuesday next week (26.11.2024). This is due to the ongoing yellow weather warning that has been extended to 10am on Wednesday morning for snow, ice and temperatures dropping across the course of today.
Your appointment on Tuesday 26th November 2024 with your child’s class teacher will be at exactly the same time as it would have been today, but please do let us know if this is not suitable.
At this time, our Thursday evening appointments will go ahead as planned.
Many thanks for your understanding.
Information for families about what will happen if we have to close the school due to severe weather conditions or other emergency situations is now saved in the School Documents section of this website under School Emergency Closure Information. Paper copies of the relevant documents will also be coming home to families this week.
Please familiarise yourself with these documents as there are a few changes whilst we do not have Seesaw to use to share learning and check-ins with. Fingers are duly crossed that we do not need these too soon!
Our Term 2 Class newsletters and Learning Pathways are being loaded onto this website as we type!
Check out the section on the right hand side of this web page for what our classes will be up to this term.
