Dear Parents and Carers

I hope you are all well and that your child enjoyed our South American fiesta Sports Day.    It is always such a fun morning with P7 ’embracing’ the relay at the end.  The slightly colder weather didn’t deter them in any way.   With only five weeks to the end of this school year it is a very busy time at Trinity as we look at class organisation, meet our new P1s, prepare to say goodbye to our P7s, enjoy various events etc.  Please do keep an eye on the calendar below and watch out for text updates.  We do occasionally get comments saying too much information is shared but this is definitely a case of we can’t please everyone.  Some families will say to the office they don’t know what is going on!

Sponsored Walk : Friday June 6th

Our P7 Health and Wellbeing leadership group are currently planning a whole school 3K sponsored walk in aid of Edinburgh’s Children’s Hospital charity.   A similar event was undertaken a few years ago and was extremely successful.  Several Trinity families have benefited from this charity and any money we raise I am sure will go to good use. The group are planning a route along the local walkway but need help from parents and carers to act as marshals or to walk with some learners.   Further information will be shared but in the meantime it would be helpful to the group to have an idea of numbers able to help so please do let us know either by emailing to admin@trinity-pri.edin.sch.uk or by completing the form (another one!) below.

Sponsored Walk : Friday June 5th 2026 – Fill in form

Connecting Cultures event : Friday May 22^nd 2026

We are looking forward to welcoming parents and carers to our Connecting Cultures Star Time and  Coffee Morning on Friday.   This  event  is being lead by our P7 Equalities and Diversity leadership group.   Parents and Carers are welcome to join Star Time from 9.15am and then go onto the coffee morning or simply come in for the coffee morning at 10.10am.   I do appreciate that many parents and carers have other commitments on a Friday morning and hope that across the year other opportunities are available to join school events.

Priorities for 26 / 27

Thank you to those of you who have taken time to respond to our questionnaire.   The survey closes on Friday May 22^nd so please do click on  the link below if you would like to give us some feedback.  Many thanks.

Dear Parents and Carers

What a fabulous time we had at Trinity last week.

Our P7 show (supported by P6) was another huge success.  Yet again The Pitt proved to be a great venue, the sun shone for us and our P7s were absolutely amazing.  A real credit to themselves, their parents and carers and to our school.  Feedback has been extremely positive – thank you to those who have taken time to email or to pass on comments.

Preloved School Uniform

Preloved school uniform items will be available on the last Friday of every month in the front  playground.  Please do take what you can use – cash donations, if possible, towards school funds are appreciated.

Priorities for 26 / 27

At this time of year we discuss and plan our priorities for next session.   The main priority from our Inspection report is to continue doing what we do.  Whilst this is a very positive place to be in we are never complacent and are always looking at how we can improve.  As a staff we have identified some areas for development but also welcome feedback from parents and carers.  Everyone’s views are important.  I do appreciate that we can all feel a bit ‘surveyed out’ but would be grateful if you could take a few minutes to complete the survey below.
