Dear Primary 7,
Welcome to your Virtual Leavers Assembly!
Unfortunately, we missed out these messages!
And a special message from Miss Davies!
Your P7 memories
Mr Smith’s full message
We had to use an edited version in the main video to stick to the 15 minute limit but we did not want you to miss out on Mr Smith’s great speech!
Best of luck P7…
Your mountain is waiting!

Once you’ve taken part in your chosen activities, it is time for the ULTIMATE challenge: Where are the Gilmerton Staff? Can you challenge your family members? How many members of staff will you spot? Who will spot them first? (Answers will be uploaded on Friday afternoon!)
Have fun everyone!
Dear Gilmerton families
We are missing you all so much! So we have created this video for you!
We can’t wait to see all your happy faces and hear your laughter again.
Stay safe!

Hub schools for key workers
Parents have been contacted by the Authority directly and information has been shared regarding the arrangements for children of key workers for the rest of this week. If you have had notification to attend a Hub school tomorrow/Friday please note that the Head Teachers at the hub schools will be asking the questions in the flow chart below when you arrive. Please read these questions carefully as the Heads of the hub schools do not wish to upset families and their children if they turn up in error. Please note that Hub Schools have been organised centrally and that the school does not currently have information regarding offers to families.
Please, please make sure you use this flow chart to decide if you are eligible for childcare/schooling.
This is a time of uncertainty and a lot of our pupils will be feeling anxious about what is going on. Please find these links and documents to support our pupils during this time.
