The lessons will be held at Summerhill Swimming Pool at 9.30 a.m. and 10.15 a.m. and bus transport will be provided for each class.

Parents of 3 and 4 year old children who have either 1 or 2 years before starting primary school, who wish a place at an Aberdeen City Council nursery in the school session starting August 2010, should apply for places between 18 January and 12 February 2010.

The Eco Council would welcome help from any parent/guardian who may have a little spare time.  Help is required for plastic recycling and in the School Garden  - tidying etc.  Please get in touch with the school if you would like to help or pass a message on via your child.

At the Eco Council meeting on 27 November 2009 it was agreed to look for some help with collecting used postage stamps.  If you have any used postage stamps that you would like to pass on to the school it would be most welcome.  The stamps will be sent off by the school and exchanged for reading books for blind people.

Culter School is closed to pupils on 1st December 2009 owing to a failure with the heating system.

The heating has been fixed and school will re-open on Wednesday 2nd December 2009.
