So here’s to you, Mrs Hinnigan!
Today we bid farewell to Mrs Hinnigan as she embarks on an exciting new adventure working for the Scottish Government. She has been an invaluable member of Team Edenside and will be missed. We look forward to welcoming Mrs Elaine Webster on Monday to ‘pick up the reins’ as our Kelso Cluster administrator.

Music lessons (P4-7) – a few opportunities available
Scottish Borders Council, through the Instrumental Service, offers young people the opportunity to learn to play a musical instrument. Through playing an instrument young people derive great pleasure, gain in confidence and learn a wide range of creative and social skills. We have been informed that a few instrument lessons are available. If this is something that you would like to explore for your children, please phone us at school and we’ll share more information.

Loose parts – a wee reminder!
We are really keen to expand our ‘lose parts play’ provision. To do this we need to collect more ‘loose parts’. The list of possible loose parts is endless but can include: hoses/pipes/gutters, tyres, old steering wheels, wheels from bikes/trikes, wooden boxes/plastic crates, metal pots and pans, metal watering cans, planks of wood, offcuts of decking/timber, pallets, large wooden picture frames (minus the glass), wooden cable reels, large pieces of fabric/tarpaulin, tree stumps/logs/log slices, buckets. If you or any family members may have any such items which you could donate, we would be most grateful. Please contact Mrs White via the school email address. Thank you so much. #LearningThroughPlay
