Today the school closes for the summer holiday, pupils resume on Thursday 19 August. The school office will be open during the holiday period and can be contacted in the usual way.

Calendar change: the Scottish Government has allocated two additional in-service days for staff to develop the Curriculum for Excellence. East Lothian has identified Wednesday 18 August as one additional in-service day. East Lothian has proposed Tuesday 26 October as the second additional in-service day. Currently this is a provisional arrangement and will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Thank you to all members of the school community for another exciting and successful session.

Best wishes for a peaceful and enjoyable summer.
