Punctuality and attendance are important. In the interest of safety children are
not permitted to leave the school premises during school time without parental
permission

school is not responsible for the children’s safety and welfare before 8.45am
A note or
phone call from parents is expected following a child’s absence from school
Dental and medical appointments should be notified to the class teacher. If for
some reason your child is not to do P.E. or swimming, a note is expected
All children should be left the school premises by 3.00pm
Lunchtime
arrangements
School meals are cooked on the premises. Children can purchase a school dinner or take a packed lunch.
Whilst dinner money will be collected every morning it would be beneficial if all money could be collected on Monday morning. Please ensure that children have the correct money with them.
A school meal costs £1.80 which includes dessert and drink.
Menus are sent out in advance every month.
If you feel that your child is eligible for free meals, please ask us for a form.
Milk is also available for 50p per week which must be paid for in advance.

proud of our school uniform, which

It is essential that children
have a full range of clothing
for PE and that PE kit is stored
in an appropriate PE bag. A tracksuit
/jogging bottoms may be worn during
cold weather outdoors. Swimming
kit is required for P4-P7 children.
All clothing should be clearly
marked with your child's name.

Newly pierced ears must/will be
taped over prior to PE.
From P4 upward all children should
have a pencil case, pencils, rubber,
sharpener, ruler and coloured
pencils. They should have access
to these, and a dictionary, at
home.
Transport
The school is
indebted to Glasdrumman GAC for
the use of their club minibus
and to the volunteers who drive
it. As a result of their generosity
children from Annalong and the
surrounding area are able to receive
transport to school in the mornings.
The SELB provide a bus for transport
in the afternoons.
In the interests
of the safety of your child, please
ensure that your child behaves
properly on the school bus. Children
must not leave their seats while
the bus is in motion. Getting
on and off the bus are the most
dangerous times. Constantly remind
your child of road safety.
