Date for your diaries: our AGM will be held in Strontian Primary School at 7pm on Monday 29 September 2025.
Members should have received notification from the Secretary today, but all are welcome.
Also not mentioned in the job advert is that you'll be headteacher in Scotland's first community-owned school building: designed, funded & built by local people) 👇
Headteacher wanted for Strontian Primary School!
(not immediately obvious from the job advert, which titles it Head Teacher (3-18), Ardnamurchan High School, but it definitely includes the primary school, which is a separate school & building).

With Spring approaching we hope to do some tree planting around the grounds with the school children.
We're looking to source some 1800mm x 600mm weldmesh tree guards for this. If anyone can donate some (or offer them at a reduced price) we'd be very grateful 🙏

Formal notice will be issued by the SCSB secretary in due course.
One of the most inspiring projects I have seen in H&I, but the sheer graft that went into this by @StrontianCSB alongside @CHTScotland shouldn't be underestimated. Needless to say, it shouldn't have been as hard as it was considering the goal and benefits.
Two communities that have been denied school 🏫 rebuilds and upgrades are considering following the historic lead of Strontian, which raised £1million to build its own @StrontianCSB https://t.co/B8Wk3dKd2O
We are so chuffed to be shortlisted for @scotcivictrust award!! An Laimhrig was a huge island effort. Hours of community meetings to agree & plan it, then a build programme including Covid & some truly terrible weather. We love & are so very proud of our EPC A+ rated buildings.
Our school is looking for a new headteacher (jointly with Ardnamurchan High School - the post is 3-18 campus head).
Do you want to be head of the only community-built school in Scotland? (of course you do....!) https://t.co/FsJDjzp9O8
Message for our members: we have today paid share interest at the usual 3% - check your bank accounts.
And a huge thank you to all those members who generously waived their interest, over £1600 in total this year!
A heads-up that our AGM will be held this year on Monday 30 October - formal notice will be issued by the Secretary shortly.
But do you know what else makes this a particularly special day for us? Reply with your answers!

A big shout out for Ardnamurchan High School who came first equal in the Scottish Schools Geography quiz yesterday, but then lost the tie break.
(But as the other school was a private one, I think we can claim the moral victory 😉)
