Dear Parent/Guardian,

Cheques should be made payable to East Lothian Council and separate cheques should be written for each class so as funds can be cancelled easily if your child does not get a place in a class. Where places have not been allocated cheques will be destroyed. Any classes paid for with cash must be for the exact amount as we are unable to hold any petty cash money. Any refunds will be raised through East Lothian Council’s Finance Department and can take up to 28 days to process.

Please note that all classes are limited and on a first come first served basis and you will only be contacted if your child does NOT have a place. Also note that this contact may be made by text / email message so provide a mobile number /email address that is used regularly. A discount is available to Leisure Pass Plus (LPP) card holders when a valid code and date is entered on the return slip. Costs for valid LPP holders are detailed in the “Class and Activity Information” section. Further details on specific classes are available in the section “Class and Activity Information”. For all classes it is the parent/guardians responsibility to make sure their child gets to and from the class safely and all children primary 3 and under must be collected. Please ensure your child wears appropriate footwear and clothing and brings drinking water to the session.

Other classes will be on offer throughout the year on either an individual school or cluster basis so look out for letters offering new opportunities.

In addition to the cluster programme detailed in this letter Active School’s aims to offer FREE local activity for children at their local school and to do this we rely on dedicated parent and community volunteers i.e. YOU! With your help we can provide more opportunities for more pupils to get active. Parents choose the day and time that suits them best and usually the commitment is 1 hour a week for a block of 6 weeks. We offer FREE training opportunities and support to give you the skills to deliver successful after school clubs. Examples of activities that could exist at your school are Funky Fun (imaginative themed games for P1 & 2), Midi Kickers (football based skills and games designed to suit ages 3-7 years), Girls on the Go! (Learn how to develop sessions to encourage young girls in P5-7 to become more active), Junior jogscotland (fun running based games for P3+), Funky Fitness (games, challenges and fun for P3-4) and The Funky Factor (alternative activities to encourage a positive attitude to health and fitness for P5-7). Resources and lesson plans are available in these activities and training courses are coming up soon If this sounds like you then get in touch on the details above.
