Fivemiletown Primary School and Nursery

On Thursday 18th Dec Key Stage 2 pupils should not bring in their school bag.  If any pupil is taking packed lunch please send food in a plastic bag and water bottles can be collected on Friday.  This will make the transition from the Carol Service to home a little easier!

Thank you.

As we near the end of Term 1 here are a few reminders for Term 2;

School will reopen on Monday 5th January. 

Breakfast/ Homework/ Afterschool costs will increase to £3 per hour. 

School meals prices also increase to £3 for Nursery & £3.10 for Primary each day.

On 7th January we kindly ask that P1-3 pupils are collected at the earlier time of 1.30pm to accommodate our Primary Open Afternoon.

All band members should bring their instruments into school from Mon 5th Jan for Open Afternoon reahearsals.

Finally we would like to take this opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas and peaceful New Year.

Thank you.
