MORAY PRIMARY SCHOOL AND NURSERY CLASS

Information to all parents/carers – September 1st 2010

We are having an Open Evening on Thursday September 16th

between 3.30 – 4.30 p.m. Staff here have decided that we
should reduce the length of the open evening so that we can
give more time to one-to-one meetings in February. We also
plan to send home the interim report in November with the
annual report at the normal time of June. Please be assured
though that you can ask for a meeting at any time and
indeed so can the class teachers if the need arises. The
Open Evening is informal and is intended as a “meet the
teacher” time. Due to the lack of confidentiality during this
event it is best not to discuss any personal or sensitive
matters with the teacher. We do encourage you to bring
your child to this event and have a walk of the school.
We also have a Literacy Week planned for the week
beginning Monday September 27th with many events and
activities to promote this important area of the curriculum.
Last year we had a fantastic week and I’m sure this will
continue in 2010. Our event coincides with Falkirk Council’s
Learning to Achieve Festival with many schools highlighting
good practice through a variety of experiences.
Falkirk Council is taking part in a Validated Self Assessment
with HMIe next week and we have been asked to showcase
the work of our Enterprise Champions for this. There is a
possibility that inspectors will be in Moray for a short time
to speak to the children and find out about their work here.
I hope that this information is helpful to you at this time.
