Dear Parents and Carers,
A very warm welcome to Harestanes Primary School and ELR, whether your child is starting school for the first time, joining us from another school or continuing on their school journey, we are delighted to have your family as part of our community.
As Head Teacher, and having previously been Depute Head here, I know what a special place Harestanes is. Our pupils are curious, creative, and kind, and our staff are committed to helping every child feel safe, valued and inspired to achieve their very best.
We believe that a strong partnership between home and school makes all the difference to a child’s learning and happiness. We value the knowledge you have of your child and the role you play in their education. By working together and sharing successes, solving challenges, and celebrating achievements we can help every child thrive.
Throughout the year, there will be many opportunities to get involved: from class events and parent workshops to Parent Council meetings and whole-school celebrations. Your support, ideas and feedback are always welcome and my door is open to every family.
We are so pleased you have joined our school community, and I look forward to getting to know you and your child as we begin this exciting journey together.
Warm regards.
Jillian Grant
Head Teacher
