Trinity News 21st May 2025

Dear Parents and Carers

I hope that our Trinity Learners enjoyed ‘Going Down Under’ for Sports Day on  Friday.  The sun certainly shone for us and I would say P7 were grateful for the addition of the soakers at the house relay!   Our competitive Athletics Festival for P5 – P7 will take place on Wed 11th Jun.

Trinity’s Got Talent – the excitement mounts!

Our House Captains will be leading the auditions on the following dates.   All contestants are asked to supply their own music, instruments, costumes etc as required.       Finalists will be shared after all the auditions have taken place.    If anyone misses their audition due to absence the captains will try their hardest to rearrange.

Wed 21st May : P4

Fri 23rd May : P3

Thurs 29th May : P6

Tues 3rd June : P5 and P7

Wed 4th June : P1 and P2

Brew and Blether – Fri May 30th : 9.00am – 9.50am in the main hall

Please join us for a cuppa and hear how we support our learners with dyslexia, some of whom will be there to share the strategies they use.   The event is open to all parents and carers but may be most appropriate for P4 upwards.

KIC formsA separate KIC permission form is required to be completed.  This will be sent home in schoolbags and must be returned to school asap.No form means no going.

We welcome as many adult helpers as possible.  To help us to plan please complete the form below indicating if you are able to come along and if you need a seat on the coach if available.   Many thanks in advance.

Communication

We do appreciate that there can often be several items of communication, reminders etc.   School life is busy.   Feedback from our recent survey ranged from ‘too much’ to ‘not enough – I don’t know what’s happening’.

We will be looking at how we can streamline how and what we share whilst still endeavouring to make sure parents and carers are informed.  Please bear with us if you receive a duplicate – our approach is better to receive info more than once than not at all.

Dates for the term ahead.
