School Closures

Due to the adverse weather conditions all schools in West Lothian will be closed today (Wednesday). You can find updates on the West Lothian Council Facebook, website and Twitter.

Information about rescheduling Parent Consultantation Evenings at Dedridge PS will follow once schools reopen.

We would love to see some pictures of what you get up to in the snow and hear about the activities you do while you are off (pictures you draw, poems/stories about winter, recipes you bake, etc.).

School Photographer (and Nursery) – Thursday 8th February

The school photographer will be coming in on Thursday 8th February to take individual photographs of pupils and nursery children.  In addition siblings will be photographed as family groups.

Please ensure that your child has appropriate uniform on that day.

Many thanks.
