Welcome to Mrs Moore's Primary One!

A little note to remind all parents –

Please practice with your child taking off/putting on and zipping up their coat. Also practice taking off and putting on your child’s jumper. It is very important that pupils can do this themselves to promote independence.

Please let the adults and your child know if you have enclosed a note/money in their blue folder.

Please talk with your child about whether they are having school dinner or packed lunch so that they can inform us.

Name ALL items of clothing, including coats, and show your child where to find their name.

ALL money must be in an envelope with your child’s name and what the money is for.

Please remember to send a small healthy snack for break e.g. pancakes, sandwiches, fruit, cheese or yoghurt. No chocolates, sweets or buns please.

No earrings are allowed to be worn after the first six weeks after piercing.
