Welcome to Newbigging Primary Parent Council
Our objectives are to represent the views of parents and to engage in, develop and support the education and welfare of the pupils.
Our role is to create a welcoming school that is inclusive for all and to promote relationships between the school, pupils, parents, carers and the wider community.
Our next Parent Council meeting will be held on the Monday 25th April. All parents/carers are welcome. If you have any items to be raised on the agenda, please get in touch with Kathryn Foot. The link to the meeting will be sent out by Class Dojo prior to the meeting.
Our aims:

These are the sort of things we get involved in:
- Fundraising at school events – raffles, fetes, bake sales.
