It continues to be a fairly busy time at Ardross Primary and we have a few different faces around at the moment! Beth MacKenzie (childcare student) and Hayley Sim (teaching student) continue their time in school, and we would also like to welcome Rachel Knuttel who will be in P4-7 for the next few weeks and is a teaching student from America! We hope the children enjoy having some extra help around and thank our students for the dedication and interest they have shown so far. As the weather has been better of late, we intend to take the children out for short walks in the sunshine to learn more about the outdoors.
Music Tuition
Sue Drever will be in school on Monday next week instead of Tuesday.

Clothing
A reminder that all children should be in our royal blue & white school uniform please, and all items should be labelled with your child’s name. Any donations of unwanted, new/used clothing are greatly appreciated and should be put in our new Rag Bag collection bins in the playground.
Easter Celebration
As always, our last day of term will be an Easter Celebration. Children are invited to enter our Easter egg competition, details of which have already gone out, and we will also have an Easter Bonnet competition (bonnets to be made at home). The Nursery will be invited over to join us and we will enjoy an Easter Egg Hunt.
School will close at the usual time on Thursday, 24th March and re-open at 9am on Monday, 11th April 2016.
