Thank you to everyone who attended the parent conference this week as part of our ‘Mental Health Festival’. The sessions, on managing anxiety and dealing with grief and loss, were very well attended.  For those who could not attend, we have shared some links below.  In addition, please find a copy of ‘Managing anxiety in young people’ presentation here and supporting bereavement here. 

Good luck to Mr Crawford, Roddy, Ms Ness and all the other East Renfrewshire pupils heading to China today for an exciting 2 week trip of language and culture.
