    Update from Highland Council Buses.

    In order to get all pupils home the following arrangements have had to be made.

    • 301 Service Torness, Croachy, Farr. – This bus will not travel past Croachy. It will drop off all Farr and Inverarnie pupils but will terminate at Croachy.

    • 302 Service Foyers – They are able to send a 22 seater to take pupils to Foyers. This will travel via Whitebridge. This bus should be for pupils that live in Foyers only. No pupils from Ness Castle or Dores should travel on this bus. Ness castle pupils should walk home or arrange a lift. Dores pupils should travel on one of the minibuses that Highland Council are sending for them

    • 14 Service – Whitebridge – This service should now depart as normal.

  • Road Conditions – Foyers, Whitebridge, Dores

    Published 05/02/24

    Road Conditions – Foyers, Whitebridge, Dores

     

    We have been in touch with Highland Council Buses regarding the current road conditions.  Currently the roads to Whitebridge and Foyers are closed due to landslip and/or flooding, and the road to Dores is badly impacted by flooding.  The bus operators are hopeful that they can transport pupils from school to Dores by using minibuses.  However, they are not hopeful that the road conditions will improve for taking pupils to Whitebridge or Foyers.  At this stage we have been asked to inform families to begin making provisions for families to contact their Inverness city contact.  Families that travel in from outside Inverness city would have nominated a contact of this kind on enrolment.  We would ask parents to make alternative arrangements to either pick up their child (if safe to do so) or make arrangements for their child to be picked up, and to stay with relatives or emergency contacts in Inverness.  Staff will remain in school with pupils until confirmation of these arrangement are received.

    πŸ“’ RIGHTS OF THE MONTH πŸ“’

    Throughout February, we are shining a spotlight on three important articles that promote safer internet use. With Safe Internet Day on February 7th, it's crucial that we address safety issues surrounding the internet and social media. πŸŒπŸ’»

    πŸ”’ Article 17: Access to Information from the Media 
    Every child has the right to reliable information from various sources. Governments must encourage the media to provide content that children can understand. Our aim is to protect children from harmful materials and empower them with knowledge. πŸ’ͺ

    βš–οΈ Article 19: Protection from Violence, Abuse, and Neglect 
    Every child has the right to be shielded from violence, abuse, neglect, and mistreatment. It is the responsibility of governments to ensure their safety and well-being, both at home and elsewhere.

    πŸ›‘οΈ Article 34: Sexual Exploitation 
    Children have the right to be protected from any form of sexual abuse and exploitation. We must all work together to safeguard or young people; preventing any harm that might come their way.

    Access additional resources and information on these topics by visiting the RRSA tile on your pupil portal. Educate yourself and make a difference! Together, we can build a safer online world. πŸ’»πŸ’™

    ⚠️ Remember, if you have any concerns or questions arising from this week's discussions, feel free to reach out to your guidance teacher at any time. Alternatively, you can make an appointment with RASASH through your pupil portal.
