Friends of Abbeyhill Primary

Friends of Abbeyhill Primary Friends of Abbeyhill Primary will use this page to advertises meetings, events, and opportunities for community involvement in supporting the school.

The Parent Forum comprises all parents and carers of children at Abbeyhill Primary School. It holds an Annual General Meeting where parents and carers can volunteer to become members of the Parent Council. The Parent Council meets approximately five times throughout the academic year to discuss issues and arrange events. Nominations for the Parent Council occur at the start of each school year; however, there are many opportunities to get involved year-round. Get in touch through Facebook, email us, or leave a note for the Parent Council at the main school reception. Details of the current Parent Council members, future meeting dates, and meeting minutes can be found on the website: https://abbeyhillprimary.wordpress.com/parent-council/.

🌟 Parent Council Highlights 🌟

We’ve been quiet here but busy behind the scenes!
Here are the key highlights from this term:

📚 New Diversity Book Sets
Using the money raised at last year’s Garden Party, the Parent Council purchased 108 books on diversity, ethnicity and disability for classroom libraries across the school.
A big thank you to the teacher who carefully selected all the titles!

🎉 Family Ceilidh – Thank You!
A huge thanks to everyone involved in the fantastic family ceilidh last night — from the organisers, bakers, stall volunteers, and all of you who joined us for such a fun evening!
Special thanks to Bernie, our brilliant musician, and Caroline from Ceilidhkids, who led the dancing with so much energy and enthusiasm.
Events like this help build a strong and connected school community!

Thank you to everyone who helped make the Colour Run on 1 November such a success — from the planners to volunteers who made it all possible 💛

We were lucky with the weather, had a fantastic turnout, and enjoyed a whole lot of colour and fun! 🏃‍♀️🌈

Thanks to your support, we raised vital funds for parent council-led improvements at Abbeyhill Primary — including upgrades to the playground that will benefit all our children. 🙌

An Abbeyhill Primary School Parent Council member was among the local representatives invited to tour the future National Centre for Music, contributing to the vision for this exciting cultural development.

The transformation of the former Royal High School building is being made possible thanks to a £4.5 million grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, awarded to the Royal High School Preservation Trust.

This landmark project promises to bring music, learning, and community together in the heart of our city.
