The Establishment and the Community
We aim to co-operate and contribute to local community groups and events whenever possible. As part of our curricular planning we aim to foster good citizenship and care for our environment by encouraging the children to participate in Eco based learning experiences. We also participate in the Smile Too programme linked to NHS Greater Glasgow dental services. We regularly use work experience placement for pupils in secondary schools and Childcare & Education students from several colleges.
Services within the Community
All children in their pre-school year will be invited to participate in a dental health and visual screening programme in partnership with NHS Scotland. You will be informed if your child needs treatment. There is a Health Clinic at Pollokshaws and an organisation called Homestart in Shawbridge Street which helps support parents with young children. There is also a DSS office in Coustenholm Road.
Childminders / Playgroups / Creches / after school and holiday care groups - all exist within the local community. For further details of this, please contact:
