Eastern Primary School Vision –
Our children will be included, safe, healthy, caring, active and responsible
Welcome back! We hope you have had an enjoyable summer – despite the weather. We
are all raring to go into this new session and we hope that you will be able to come along
and join us in many of our activities again this year.
Welcome to new members of our team – Mrs McGlone is our Nursery teacher this
session, Miss Gray is P4a’s class teacher, Miss Devlin is P5a’s class teacher and Mrs
Watt is P6a’s class teacher. We would also like to welcome Ms Inglis who will be
working with our Additional Support Needs team. New children and their families are
joining us and we hope they have a great time here at Eastern.
Playground
Uniform
Thank you to all those who have supported
our approach to uniform this session. Many
of our children arrived looking very smart
and ready to learn. There are lots of shiny
black shoes and school sweatshirts in
evidence – this really helps to build a team
spirit and sense of belonging!
Thank you for your ongoing support.
Please remember that parents should
leave the playground after the 9.00am
bell to allow the children to come into
school in a calm, orderly manner.
During the first 3 weeks, however,
parents of our new P1 children may wish to
stand with their children until their
teacher comes out to the line.
Wet Weather
Twitter – We regularly tweet information about
the school and photographs of the children

School starts at 9.00am – even on
rainy days.
Please send your child to school as
close to this time as possible, wearing
suitable clothing. There are some
sheltered areas in the playground
which can be used on wet mornings.
