Crossmichael Primary School Parent Council Facebook Page
Our Parent Council now has its own Facebook page! This is a closed group so that privacy can be maintained. The office bearers of the Parent Council will be invited as administrators of the group.
If a parent wishes to join the group then they should request to befriend ‘Headteacher Crossmichael- Gelston’.
We have a Parent Council page on the school website and we update the minutes of meetings on the associated blog.
Here is the link to our school website page: https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/dg/crossmichael/crossmichael-parent-council/
We hope that you find this page useful.
Best wishes,
Mary Cruickshanks
Headteacher
