Friday 12th April

Welcome back

The pupils have returned to school looking incredibly smart and ready to learn, we all look forward to working with you over the Summer Term to make learning exciting, fun and with appropriate challenge. Please be reminded to access the weekly newsletter where you will be informed of up-and-coming dates and events.

I’d like to officially welcome Miss C. Stockford to the school family as our School Support Officer. Thank you to all of those parents who have already met her and made her feel very welcome. Welcome to the Mount Pleasant Family Miss Stockford.  

I’m delighted to announce that Miss Gilfillan has given birth to a beautiful baby girl. She was born on Sunday 7th April during the early hours, weighing in at a healthy 7lbs. We look forward to meeting baby Mali very soon. Welcome to the world baby Mali from all of us at MPPS.

Kind regards

Miss Rutledge and the MPPS Team
