The letter below is addressed to Parents/Carers of school age children.  It is dated 16 September 2021.

Letter from Jason Leitch

The letter below sets out the new arrangements for  COVID-19 positive cases.   The major change is that Test and Protect will solely handle the close contact situation and be responsible for making contact with pupils.

Another change is the definition of a close contact

“Your child would only be identified as a contact if they have had prolonged close contact with the case (someone who tests positive for COVID-19) – e.g. same household, overnight stays.”

Due to lockdown last year, we were unable to hold our annual prizegiving last summer but we held a belated socially distanced  award ceremony in the Assembly Hall in the school yesterday.

We plan to celebrate 2021’s awards later this year, when the pandemic restrictions will (hopefully) have abated.

Congratulations to all our prize winners, as detailed in the attached list.

We are very sad to report the tragic passing of S4 pupil Jay Gallacher on Saturday night.

“Jay was a lovely pupil and we are all devastated by this tragic news. Jay was in S4 and had just finished his Nat 5 assessments in all seven subjects and was about to make his course choices for S5 this week. He was proud of his achievements and had a bright future ahead of him.

He will be missed by everyone who knew him and our thoughts are with his friends and family. We will provide our full support to pupils and staff in the days and weeks ahead.”

We look forward to welcoming all pupils back tomorrow, Monday 19th April. It is a Blue Timetable week, so pupils should bring materials for Periods 2, 4, 5 & 7 on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. On Wednesday and Friday it is Periods 2, 4, 6.

Similar to the three weeks before the Easter Break we intend to ask pupils to socialise outside this term when not in class. This is a highly recommended measure to keep pupils safe at this time.
