Creating Connections
During the event, attendees participated in various activities that highlighted the importance of community engagement in school life.

By bridging the gap between the school and the community, Glenbarr aims to create a richer educational experience for its students. The school’s leadership emphasized that active parental involvement is crucial for student success.
Future Opportunities for Pupils
Looking ahead, the Community Partnership group plans to organize workshops, social events, and fundraising activities designed to benefit pupils and enhance their learning environment. These events will not only provide resources for the school but also foster a sense of belonging among families and the local community.
Principal Sarah Thompson expressed her enthusiasm for the initiative, stating, “We believe that when families and communities come together, we can create a vibrant and supportive environment for our students.” She highlighted the positive impact that increased parental involvement can have on children’s educational outcomes.
