School Open Evening

We are looking forward to welcoming parents/carers to the school open evening on Tuesday 24th September (first tour starting 5pm with the last tour at 6pm).  You are welcome to bring children with you however, there will not be a crèche facility available so children must stay with parents/carers.  The tour will give you the opportunity to see the environment that the children have happily settled into and will show you that the Loanhead PS ethos remains very much embedded into our day to day schooling.   This open evening has been arranged on this date to tie in with the Friends of Loanhead PS Parent council AGM starting at 6.30pm and a warm welcome is extended to all who wish to stay for this also.  Teas & coffees will be available in the gym while you wait for a tour and before the AGM.

Following on from this you will have the opportunity at Parents Evening/Afternoon (Thursday 24th October/Tuesday 29th October) to see and discuss the individual progress that your child is making.

Dear Parents / Carers
