Formed in 1988, the Parents' Association exists to encourage parents and carers to get actively involved with the school. We meet about six times a year to hear about developments and discuss school matters with the Head Teacher and other members of staff. You can find minutes of our meetings published on this website and in Penicuik Library. You are very welcome to attend, just to listen (without fear of being lined up for any jobs you don’t want), or to get more actively involved. We fundraise through our 50-50 club (see the separate leaflet if you’d like to join). In recent times the money raised has purchased equipment for the school and supported a range of social and charitable events. Sometimes we sit on panels which interview and appoint senior members of staff. We help to develop school policies by contributing to staff meetings and working groups. Chair of the PA is Mr Murray Cole who can be contacted on 01968 672400, in writing via the school or by e-mail to mic@inf.ed.ac.uk
