It has been a difficult and very strange term for all of us but we look forward to welcoming our pupils back into school in August. To our P7 pupils we say “good luck,” whatever high school you are going to.
Have a wonderful summer!
From everyone at Colinton.

We had a wee celebration on Friday 29 May. The slide show is a selection of the pictures from our Colinton community who enjoyed the sunshine for their tea party. The TV episode of the Beechgrove Garden below shows how the “Room To Grow” started off. Enjoy!
