Thank you to all the S1 and S2 parents, speakers and school staff who attended this event.  We enjoyed getting to know you better and hope you enjoyed getting to know more about the support team in the school and beyond. Thank you also to the PTA who kept us in caffeine on a fairly dreich evening!  I would like to offer particular thanks to Ryan Gilroy…as he said himself afterwards, he spoke from the heart and his honesty and passion were very well received.  We are incredibly proud of him.

If you have any feedback on the evening that you would like to share with us it would be gratefully received.  Please contact us through admin@balernochs.edin.sch.uk and title your email ‘BGE Feedback.’

If you are interested in participating in a Raising Teens with Confidence course we would be delighted to hear from you.  We plan to run the first course in the October to Christmas term, dates to be confirmed, but it will be in the evening.  Again, please contact us at the admin email above using the title ‘RTWC.’

Fran and Anna provided their email addresses last night.  If you have any questions regarding the ASL provision here is a reminder of their details:
