What’s happening in school?

We would like to welcome Miss Lang to our
Deerpark Primary School team.

Miss Lang will join us on the 6th of January and will teach Primary 5 in place of Mrs Robertson who will be going off on maternity leave.

We would like to wish Mrs Robertson and
her family all the best.

The Parent Association would like to say a big thank you to everyone who supported our Christmas Fair.
This year we made £650.

This money went towards Deerpark Primary School visit to
the pantomime.
Thank you once again for all the support in
organising, donating to, and attending this
event.

On Tuesday 10th Dec the boys and girls at
Deerpark had the opportunity to attend
the Macrobert Arts Centre to watch
Rapunzel.

Once again the learners
represented Deerpark Primary school
brilliantly and thoroughly enjoyed their
visit.
