Law Primary Parent Council  

Our next meeting will be held on Monday 14 March, on Google Meet.  Save the date!

Also, our next coffee in the Lodge is Friday 4th March at 09.00 – all welcome – meet near the Table Tennis tables.

• The PowerPoint from last night is here https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1IiNDGufSdslRf_o9nuAnicnI-qFEEdvi/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=112260792578022560108&rtpof=true&sd=true
• To find out more about Five in a Row (and donate!)  https://www.fiveinarow.co.uk/
• We are keen to organise some online parent info evenings and the first one we would like to do is one on online safety tips for parents.  Please email us if you know someone who can deliver this session (we have a budget for the right person).  We are looking for other ideas too – please add them to our jamboard https://jamboard.google.com/d/1n3vpCMN-ImIMeFZW15DWD7QMcsi579L1fDgcI4SlyJM/edit?usp=sharing
• If you are interested in helping out with our plans for the playground we are looking for parents to get involved at the end of Feb / start of March – to plant trees, clear out the playground and help fix things!  Please email us or Michael ASAP as we can’t do it without your support  yournewfriendmichael@gmail.com
• We are still looking for a parent to support the Junior Road Safety Officers – it’s a great opportunity to volunteer at the school to support a small group of pupils to help make a difference.  Please email the PC or the school office FAO Sally Penman if interested.  They have been looking for someone for a few months now, and it’s been disappointing for the pupils that no parents have come forward to support them.
• Finally we have realised over the past 18 months that new parents starting at school are finding it very difficult when they first arrive.  We are hoping that a revamp of the parent handbook and website will help, but we have also identified a role that class reps can play in welcoming families.   They also facilitate communication between classes and the school via the Parent Council as many issues / questions are often shared by parents.  PLEASE email us if you can volunteer to be a class rep – the role is not very time consuming, it’s a nice way to get to know other parents and really does make a difference.  We are looking for reps for the following classes…

P1A

P2 – Mrs Lima and P2W

P2/3

P3W

P4L and P4K

P5G and P5M

all P6 classes

P7B and P7K and P7R

As always, please contact us if you want to get more involved or have any feedback on our meetings etc.

Best wishes

The Parent Council Team.
