Gilmerton Primary, Liberton High and Gracemount High.

We aim to support the school's staff and pupils
in a number of ways.
- Clubs - see the schools pages for details of
the many clubs we run
- Classes - We work with all the chaplains to
run classes in the schools. RE is the obvious
one where we aim to show the personal truth of
the Christian way, beyond book knowledge.
We have also run "Values at
Work" classes through Social Education and
take rugby classes in PE.
- Special Events - "The Big Idea" is a
major outreach by all the local churches, held
in the run up to Easter. We have joined in
organising lunchtime and evening shows (working
with Youth For Christ's travelling band).
- Pastoral Care - Staff and pupils often face
the struggles of life. Our commitment to the
school means we have time to listen and
chat. This small scale work is often where
deep conversations begin.
