Further to our recent visit from Celine at NEST we are delighted to be able to provide parent/carer workshops in school after the Easter break. These will be supported by myself, with Celine checking in every few sessions. In order to try and accommodate as many of you as possible please complete this short survey regarding preferrable times/days etc. This will allow us to create a time which we would hope to be suitable for the majority of those of you who wish to attend.
Following on from our Burns Family Night in school, the newly appointed President of Alloway Burns Club, Jolyn, invited some of our pupils to perform at their annual Youth Concert.
Our young people thoroughly entertained the audience with their verse speaking and singing.
Our Scots poetry and singing superstars had a lovely afternoon whilst visiting and entertaining the residents of our local Afton Court Sheltered Housing complex today.
Thank you to Celine from NEST who met with some of our parents yesterday to talk over the support NEST can provide for our children and their families who have questions around Neurodiversity. Huge thanks also to our parents/carers who managed to come along and join in.
We hope to have a support group/workshop group up and running as soon as we return from the Easter break. If you would like to join our group and you were unable to make yesterday’s information session, don’t worry you can still come along and you will be made very welcome.
A questionnaire will be sent out on the app soon. In the meantime if you have any questions please feel free to email me.
