St Marks RC Primary School

Saint Mark’s RC Primary School is situated in the city of Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland. Scotland is famous for its magnificent scenary and beauty and no other capital city can rival the beauty of Edinburgh’s city centre, with Edinburgh Castle the dominating feature. Our school offers good views of the nearby Pentland Hills.

St Mark’s Primary has a delightful nursery housed in its own accommodation within the school grounds. The nursery has two large rooms and an extension, which offers a cloakroom, a changing facility for children with additional support needs and an adult toilet. The nursery also has full wheelchair access. The nursery caters for 24 full time pupils and 16 part time pupils. The nursery is very spacious, with a lovely structured outdoor play area containing a living willow dome. This year we plan to continue to plant raised beds at the side of the nursery, and the children will be involved in planting and maintaining flowers and herbs. The nursery employs highly trained staff comprising of the Principal Teacher, a nursery teacher, three Early Years Practitioners and two Early Years Assistants.

The hours for full time pupils are Monday – Thursday 8.30am – 3pm and Friday 8.30am – 12.30pm. The morning session runs from 8.20am – 11.30am, Monday to Friday. The afternoon session runs from 11.30am – 3.30pm, Monday to Thursday. Prospective parents are very welcome to come along and look round our nursery, which is non-denominational.
