Trinity News: 7th June 2024

Dear Parents and Carers

It was lovely to see those of you who could manage at our Open Evening last night.  The month of June sees us reflecting on the past school year and we are always pleased to get feedback to help us on our journey of continuous improvement.  If you have a spare moment please complete the form below 

Classes for August

We are still awaiting confirmation of staffing but are hopeful that all will be in place and ready to be shared with all learners on Tues June 18th.

Building works

As the building works are nearing completion we are so looking forward to having our school back on one site and access restored to main toilets, classrooms, staffroom, office areas, resource storage and our janitor / cleaner base.  It has been quite a year.  Please bear with us as we pack up classrooms, relocate furniture, clear areas and  move items.  Our aim is to minimise disruption to learning and teaching.   Whilst it is unlikely that full access will be gained from the start of term (the weather really has been against the contractors) they are getting there.   Work on the kitchen roof is due to commence in September.   Whilst this is going on school lunches will continue to be prepared off site and delivered.   The completion date for all areas is expected to be Jan 2025.

7 hills challenge

Good luck to P7 who will be embarking on their 7 hills challenge next week.

P7 climb the 7 hills of Edinburgh in under 7 days!

Trinity’s Got Talent

The finalists were announced by our House Captains this week   – very well done to them.   We look forward to the final on Thursday June 27th.

It is so busy at this time of year and very easy to miss something.  Please see below for an update of dates for your diary.
