A reminder to parents/carers that the school closes for the Easter break on Friday 30 March 2012 at 12.05 pm. Pupils and staff resume on Tuesday 17 April.
For S4-S6 pupils this break is the ideal time for some independent study in preparation for the Final Exams in May. Pupils may wish to use the Study Skills Booklet for ideas on how to study and a blank revision timetable.
As in previous years, staff are providing Easter Revison sessions which we encourage pupils to attend to assist in their studies.
