Thank you for all the kind donations we received from students and staff at Tynecastle High School for our Christmas food parcels to give out to elderly and families in our community. We couldn’t do it without your support from money donated, selection boxes, gifts and food.

Thank you also to the following companies for their support: Big hearts and The Salvation Army for the donations of gifts and Caledonian Packaging Company in Gorgie Road for donating 50 new boxes.

Also thanks in advance to the volunteers who are going to help deliver them next week.

Please see the school canteen’s Festive Menu which will be available on Wednesday 16 December and costs £2.95 for students (£4 for staff).

We know that the pandemic has affected mental health and wellbeing for many of us. Connect, the Scottish parental engagement organisation, has collated useful links and resources about mental health and wellbeing that you and your young people may find useful.

These are available here: https://connect.scot/resources/supporting-mental-health
