Earlier this evening, I attended a very productive meeting of the Blackness Primary School Parent Council.
Mr Ferrier, Head Teacher, gave a very positive and comprehensive report on school activities that includes the school's fundraising efforts for the city's Haiti Appeal, sports and other activities for pupils and the recent well-attended "open afternoon" at the school.
The Parent Teacher Association is soon to be renamed "Friends of Blackness" - a good move that emphasises that all with a connection to the school are welcome to participate.
