Throughout our school and nursery class we aim to provide a happy,supportive, nurturing and caring environment where children enjoy learning and are encouraged and motivated to develop skills which helpthem reach their potential and be the best they can be.

Our ethos is firmly built on our vision - Growing to Learn, Learning to Grow.

Following stakeholder consultation during Session 2022-2023, our newly revised values Creative, Trust, Kind, Inclusive and Teamwork were created and these are embedded in the life of our school.

Our aims are to

• provide a vibrant, pupil centred, stimulating environment where pupils flourish
• work together to foster a wide range of partnerships
• ensure every child’s needs are respected and supported and their individuality is valued
• give each chid the confidence and passion to embark on their own learning journey, providing knowledge, skills and experiences which inspire life long learning
• promote and celebrate each child’s individual achievements
• ensure that every child feels safe and valued, by providing nurture and support

Packed Lunches
Children can also bring a packed lunch to school. We encourage children to bring a healthy lunch, snack and drink. In Mossneuk Primary School and Nursery Class we are a nut free zone, so please refrain from including snacks that contain any kind of nuts in children’s lunch boxes. Thank you for supporting us with this.

At Mossneuk we believe that the wearing of a school uniform helps promote the identity of our school in the local community and create an ethos of sharing and pride in the school.

Mossneuk’s school uniform is –
 

Shirt/Blouse	Blue
Polo Shirt	Blue
Trousers	Grey (boys) or Navy (girls)
Pinafore/Skirt/Trousers	Navy
Sweater/Cardigan	Navy
Blazer, Anorak or Coat	Navy

The children should bring a change of footwear for indoors and to avoid danger from wet floors and corridors and to keep our carpets in good order.

All pupils are asked to wear shorts, t-shirt and gym shoes for safety reasons at Physical Education.  For the same reasons, jewellery should not be worn.  Please ensure that all clothing and footwear is clearly labelled with your child's name.


There are forms of dress which are unacceptable in all schools such as:

• the wearing of football colours
• clothing with slogans that may cause offence (anti-religious, symbolism or political slogans)
• clothing which advertises alcohol, tobacco or drugs
• clothing which can be deemed unsuitable in terms of Health and Safety grounds such as, dangling earrings, loose fitting clothes particularly in practical classes
• articles of clothing that could inflict damage on other pupils or be used by others to do so
• footwear that may damage flooring.

We prefer pupils to wear shirts and ties for special events and whenever they are representing the school at community events.
