With great sadness we announce the death of a past staff member, Mairi Mitchell. Mairi worked at Woodpark for over a decade as a teacher, Principal Teacher and Depute Head. She was much loved by all members of staff who were lucky enough to work with her. She was a remarkable woman and will be sorely missed. We send all of our love to Mairi’s family and friends at this very sad time.

Children coming along to breakfast club should arrive in time to have their breakfast before their class starts – particularly important for P1, P3 and P6 who go to class at 8.50am!
