School Start and Finishing Times for August 2021

Dear Parents and Carers,

Whilst we close for the Summer Holiday on Friday at 11.55- 12.05pm and wish you all a lovely holiday, we are preparing for reopening in August.

School reopens for all children on Wednesday 18 August 2021.

This week, teachers will introduce the children to their new Teacher and show them where they will line up in the mornings. If the children forget on the first day back, please don’t worry, we shall all be there to help.

Starting and Finishing times remain as they are for P1-P7 and are attached as a reminder. Safe Spaces for People will still be in place. It has worked well for everyone this session and the children have appreciated the extra space around the lines, and we thank our neighbours for supporting this.

Please remember to order your choice of lunch via Parent Pay (P1-P4 children all have free school meals from August if they wish). P5-P7 children have the choice of school lunch or a packed lunch from home if you prefer.

In August, the teachers will let you know when the children have PE, homework etc. and The Curriculum Overview for the term. The First Parent Consultations will be in October. As always, if there is anything you need at the start of term, please contact us via admin@bruntsfield.edin.sch.uk.

At the moment, we are asked to keep classes in Bubbles. The playground zones have worked well and all the safety measures we have in place will be checked and ready for the children to start.

Thank you for all you have done this session to help keep everyone safe, whilst enjoying school life.

It is very much appreciated.

Kindest regards,

Carol Kyle
