Festive Dates for your Calendar!

I thought it might be worthwhile to remind everyone in our school community about all of our Christmas/December dates. Most of these events are highlighted on our parent calendar available on the school website however, there have been some necessary date changes/amendments which are highlighted in bold. I invite you along to all of these events which provides our very proud and strong community with numerous opportunities to join together and celebrate our many talents and skills, particularly those of our young people. I was delighted to see so many families, young people, partners and friends at our very successful Christmas Fayre on Saturday (1st December), thanks as always for your support and particular thanks to our Parent Council who organised and arranged the event.

I now look forward to seeing you throughout December which is traditionally, a very busy but exciting time of year for us at Chryston High School.

Yours faithfully,
