On behalf of everyone at Gargieston Primary and Early Childhood Centre, I would like to wish you all a Happy New Year as we welcome the children back to school at the beginning of this new term.

Following Mrs Wright’s departure, the management structure of the school will revert to the arrangement that was in place while Mrs Wright was supporting Catrine Primary School, with myself as Acting Head teacher and Mrs. Lawson and Mrs Beveridge sharing the Acting Depute Head teacher role.

Mrs Campbell will remain as Principal Teacher but will take on more management duties. This arrangement will remain in place until the appointment of a new permanent Head teacher.

Parents of children who are in classes where staffing is affected by these changes, will be e-mailed. As a management team, we look forward to our new roles and working in partnership with all pupils and families.

Mrs. McLaughland
