In partnership with GREC (Grampian Regional Equality Council) we are thrilled to announce the launch of our Seaton Community Café. Our aim of the café is to offer advice and support to parents and families in a relaxed setting. Each week we will be sharing information, hints and tips and guidance about initiatives, funding and supports that are available to you and your family. Each week there will be a different theme to the session, themes will be flexible as to the needs of families to ensure that we are offering relevant and quick advice that will help you the most. The theme each week will be shared with you in advance so you will know which sessions will be most appropriate for you. Support will be available during the sessions if English is an additional language to you. Tea’s, coffee, bacon rolls and a vegetarian option will be offered during the Community Café session.
Our Community Café will be open every Tuesday from 9.15am to 10.15am in school. Our Community Café will launch next Tuesday 22nd April and will be an introductory session focusing on finding out more about how we can help and support you and sharing some information about Charities across the City.
We look forward to seeing you at the sessions and please contact Mrs Duncan through the school office if you have any questions.

Thank you to the pupils, families and staff for your input and feedback to create a shared vision for our school.
The Pupil Council at Seaton have been working hard this term to develop and create a Child Friendly version of our School Improvement Plan. The pupils took our main action points and collated them onto one document. Pupil Council have shared our Child Friendly School Improvement Plan at assembly and displayed this throughout the school.
Seaton School were grateful to all the families and carers that attended our Parents Evening. During the evening we asked families and carers to describe Seaton School in one word. We thank everyone for their input.
Since January, Seaton School have been gathering input from staff, pupils, and parents to create our School Travel Plan for 24/25 – Seaton Travel Plan.
One aim on the action plan was to organise a sign for the front of the school to encourage drivers to slow down. Our Parent Voice Group were happy to fund this for the school and we now have this displayed proudly at the main entrance.

Cybersafe Scotland Information for Parents - Safer Internet Day
Seaton School is one of the first Aberdeen City Council schools moving to a new system for school meals payments, called ParentPay. The new online payment service for school meals will go live at our school on 23 January 2023.
ParentPay will allow parents/ carers to make fast and effective cashless top ups for school meals at any time of the day, view meal selection and receive support and advice from ParentPay. All of this is accessed through a secure online ParentPay account.
Cash top-ups at the school will no longer be available once the school is using ParentPay, so it’s important that once notified you activate your account as soon as possible to continue to pay for school meals.
For more information visit: School Meals ParentPay | Aberdeen City Council
