Reminder – P7 Open Evening
Every year Eastwood High School hosts an Open Evening for P7 Pupils to give you the opportunity to see the school, the facilities and see some of our young people working in classes.
We would like to invite you to the event in the new school on:
Thursday 25th October 2018 in the Atrium of the Main Building.
It is important that everyone is in the Atrium by 6.45 pm sharp as Mr Maxwell, the Head Teacher, will address parents at 7.00 pm.
Thereafter, tours of the departments will commence, which follow a very tight schedule, so timing is crucial. This year the tours will allow you to visit every department in the school.
Tea, coffee and juice will be served at some point on your tour. This will be in the café area on the ground floor.
If you wish any further details about this Open Evening, please contact the school.
