Following our values of Respect, Ambition & Community as a school we have to set up an Inclusion Fund. We are all too aware there are so many amazing opportunities offered to pupils throughout their school career that can be difficult to access because of financial constraints and this should not be a barrier to participation.

Therefore, we’ve registered with Easyfundraising, it’s a great site where you can help us raise funds  by simply doing your everyday online shopping!

Over 4,000 big name retailers are included, such as Amazon, Argos, John Lewis, ASOS, eBay, Boden and M&S.

Every time you shop through easy fundriaising we receive a small donation to say ‘thank you!’ It’s completely free and over £29M has been raised for causes just like us so far.

We want to raise as much as possible so please sign up and help us by clicking on the link.

The UK Government has approved a change to the date of next year’s early May bank holiday from Monday 4 May to Friday 8 May 2020 to mark the 75th Anniversary of VE Day.

As school session dates have already been published (with a holiday on Monday 4 May 2020), the Education Service is seeking your views on an proposed additional school closure day prior to submitting an application to do so to the Scottish Government.

Full details of this proposal can be found in the VE Day 75th Anniversary letter from Fiona Robertson, Head of Education and Childrens' Services

Complete this consultation to indicate your views on this matter, the closing date being Friday 6 December 2019.

As I write this at my desk surrounded by boxes of tissues, the waft of camphor, eucalyptus and menthol drifting to my nostrils from the scarf on which I have impregnated vapour rub, and sooking on a cherry lozenge to ease my tickly throat I realise with a shock that Winter has arrived.

A number of staff and pupils have been afflicted by this Meadowpark Misery – some worse than others and they are in the correct place – at home. Others, like me, are sniffly and feeling a bit ‘meh’ but able to carry on keeping at a safe distance: sharing is definitely not caring. It comes with the territory I suppose working physically closely as we do to support our young people through their anxieties and a reminder that we need to anti-bac the work spaces at the first sign of a sneeze.
