21st February – Community Council Meeting
7pm in the Priory Suite, Lake of Menteith Hotel
Welcome to our school!
Port of Menteith Primary School is a small, rural primary school, and is the oldest school in the Stirling Council area, dating back to 1697.
We have a standard and expectation of excellence in our work and play and we believe in open and honest communication. We treat every individual with respect and we think that the best in life is possible for every pupil, parent, and member of the school community.
Our aims and positive ethos determine our targets and expectations. The school works closely with Stirling Council’s Education Services. Their support, guidance and advice ensure that the school provides equal opportunities for all our children. The school also works closely with neighbouring schools. We have a dedicated staff, committed to offering the best educational opportunities to all our children and working well together as a team. We work in partnership with parents and members of the school community. We believe a solid home-school partnership is one of the keys to success for your child, and we look forward to working with you.
The Port of Menteith Village Hall is situated in the centre of the village. Renovated and extended some years ago with National Lottery funding, it has a stage and kitchen and is well equipped with catering facilities. The hall is available for a range of events.
Ruskie SWRI was started in 1926 in the small hamlet of Ruskie and recently celebrated its 85th birthday in grand style. The hall where the meetings are held used to be the local school and a few years ago, Mrs Graham of Rednock gifted the school to the rural. Members and visitors now enjoy the atmosphere of meetings at Ruskie with its coal fire and cheery welcome. A few of its older members are past pupils of the school, so it holds a lot of memories for them.
