STAFFING UPDATE

As you are probably aware, we are saying goodbye to Mrs Grace Fine at the end of this term, we would like to thank Mrs Fine for her hard work and commitment and wish her luck in her new post. Miss Roisin MacGregor will be starting with us as the new Ash class teacher from January 2015, I am sure you will join us in welcoming her to Parklands. We would also like to welcome Mrs Megan Manning (SEN Teaching Assistant) and Miss Stacey-Louise Gaze (Mid-day Meals Supervisor) to the team at Parklands.

PARKING Unfortunately, cars are being parked on

pavements and verges. This is creating a hazard for pedestrians and people with mobility

scooters. Please be more considerate of others when

you are dropping off and picking up your child from school.

Our Police Community Support Officer will be monitoring the area.

Thank you for your assistance.
