Friday 4th September was an emotional rollercoaster as we said goodbye to Mrs Wadley, Head Teacher of Bell’s Brae for 15 years.  As a surprise the whole school took part in a special song/dance for her amongst other surprises in Friday’s farewell assembly.

Mrs Wadley’s commitment, dedication and support to pupils and staff will be a huge miss but we will cherish many memories of her time at Bell’s Brae.  We wish her well in her new post of HM Inspector with the Scottish Government.
