Riverbank Primary School

Welcome to Riverbank Primary School

I would like to welcome you all to the Riverbank Primary School website.  Since opening our doors in August 2019 we have quickly established ourselves as an important part of the local community and aim to provide our pupils with a safe, welcoming and nurturing environment where they will thrive.

This website contains a range of information that you might find helpful and hopefully gives you a glimpse of life at Riverbank Primary School.  Please do not hesitate to contact the school if you need more information.

We recently achieved our Bronze Rail Safe Friendly Certification. This award recognises our commitment to raising vital rail safety awareness among our students.

As a next step, we have been asked to share the postcard shown below with parents and carers. This is very relevant for our community as we are so close to Dalmarnock Train Station.

Cuningar Loop parkrun has started! This is an organised, free event open to all ages that takes place every Saturday at 9:30am. Please go along to help with fun, fitness and friendships. Further information can be found here.

The Celtic Foundation are continuing the Paradise Pit Stop - Pop In And Refuel initiative. The project launched in January 2023 and everyone is welcome to go along every Monday and Thursday night between 5pm and 7pm, and Wednesday and Friday lunchtimes from Noon to 2pm, providing a free warm meal and a selection of hot and soft drinks to enjoy in the comfort of the lounge. To keep children entertained there will be games available, and also a quiet space if they want to do any of their homework. Entry is from the North East Executive entrance on Janefield Street. More information can be found here and here.

If you receive Universal Credit, Income Support or Child Tax Credit then you could be eligible for a Scottish Child Payment of £25 per week for children under 16 years old. Visit https://www.mygov.scot/scottish-child-payment/ to apply.

Some of our teaching staff have made up additional resources that can be used at home. They are in the Home Learning section of the website and can be accessed here. There is also a list of age-appropriate websites to help you. We have also created a section on Internet Safety. The first item we have added is about children using social media and can be accessed here.

Mrs Clark has created a leaflet that explains some of the language and terms used in school for numeracy and literacy. It can be accessed here.

Please remember that you can contact us through Twitter and the school email as well as the school phone.  We are here to help you.

From all at Riverbank.
