Police Scotland have produced a helpful leaflet full of tips for a safer online experience for all over the Festive season.

Please enjoy our Virtual Open Afternoon 2021.  This replaces our annual Open Afternoon which was scheduled to take place today.  We hope to meet P7 pupils and parents later this session and very much aim to be meeting in person in June 2022. 

Our 3 day visit is planned for 14^th-16^th June and our P7 Parents Information Evening planned for 15^th June 2022. We are also planning some transition events from March onwards to support P7/S1 transition.   

We look forward to meeting you then.

FYI

Please find attached some exciting information on a new Peer Support group for parents caring for a young person (11-25years) experiencing Mental Health issues. The group which is run as part of the new Parents Carewell Partnership is meeting online, fortnightly on a Friday 10-11am. The next session will be Friday 3^rd September.

The group aims to –  

• Provide parents/carers with a safe space to share their experiences and hear from other carers in similar situations
• Help improve wellbeing
• Support parents/carers with ways they can help their child
• Navigate complex systems such as social work assessments and welfare benefits
• Help parents/carers find out more about their rights as a carer

If you’d like to find out more or to wish to attend a session, email Megan, VOCAL’s Parent Carer Support Practitioner at  mcopley@vocal.org.uk

Have a lovely Summer.
