Welcome to our new look website which, we hope, gives you some insight into the life and work of Kersland. In Kersland we pride ourselves on our ability to bring out the best in all of our pupils by providing a curriculum which is built around the learning needs of the individual and offers opportunities for success in all areas of learning and development. Our pupils are very important to us and their achievements, however small, make our job worthwhile. However we can’t do it on our own! We need the ongoing support of all our parents, carers and partners if we are going to make sure Kersland remains the happiest and most stimulating educational establishment in Scotland. Enjoy the virtual visit by using the drop-down menu above or why not have a look at our new VIRTUAL TOUR and maybe we’ll see you in the flesh soon - visitors are most welcome and our school captains, pictured here, will be happy to show you around!
Best Wishes, Carol |

As part of their RME topic some of the senior pupils have been looking at the Hindu festival of Holi over the last term. As part of this course of work we were visited by Yosef, Gora and Mika from The Koh-I-Noor restaurant in New Sneddon Street, Paisley. The team worked with some of the pupils from rooms 8 and 9 to make some amazing tasting Pakora, Poppadoms, Mango Chutney and Spiced Onions. The pupils worked really hard and Yosef even said he would need to think about offering them a job when he saw how professional they were. Take a look at them hard at work in our photo gallery. |
