Hello everyone,
We hope that Tuesday’s snowy weather provided plenty opportunity to have some fun outside on the rare occasion that the school had to close for adverse weather.
Adverse Weather
May I remind you schools have a dial-in service if there is risk of closure due to adverse weather.
This allows parents to listen to a recorded message.
You can also access the highland school closure website on: for school closure information. http://www.highland.gov.uk/schoolclosures
Dial 0800 5642272 Enter School Pin 041720 Press 1 to hear the school’s message.
This week as so many schools were closed there was a delay in our school’s name being added on the Highland Council website. On this occasion and in the future, any closure information will be posted on Google Classroom, our blog and Facebook.

We have decided not to renew the contract with app due to cost. Communication will continue through Google Classroom, our school blog and Facebook.
Industrial Action
The EIS has given Highland Council notice that their members will be taking strike action on Tuesday 31st January 2023.
A decision has been made that all primary schools, including nurseries should remain closed.
If there is any change to this position, I will let you know.
The letter from Nicky Grant was posted on Google Classroom earlier this week.
