Outward Bound Trip 2015
Just over two weeks to go before the Outward Bound 2015 trip! By now most pupils have returned their final payment, EE2 and Outward Bound forms, but unfortunately I’m still awaiting these from a small number of you. It is crucial that these things are returned as soon as possible or you will not be allowed to participate. It is also very important that you also make complete an EE2b medical form if you are taking medication or have a medical condition. If you require any forms or are unsure if you need to return anything then please see me as soon as possible.
Thank you!
Mr Wyllie

Uniform Code
A reminder to all that we are very proud of our school uniform and expect all pupils to make every effort to comply with our code.  

Pupils should arrive and leave the building in full uniform (not PE kit).  Please remember plain black shoes should be worn and leggings are only acceptable when worn with a skirt of an appropriate length. 

If for any reason you have arrived in school without a piece of uniform e.g. tie or skirt, items can be borrowed before registration from Mrs Fraser in Welfare if a suitable deposit is supplied.
