“What will your child do this summer?” “What will your child do this summer?”

June 2012

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am the Schools Based Police Officer at High School providing a service to the Drumchapel Learning Community including the high school, primaries and pre school establishments.

I continue to look for ways to engage young people and provide them with relevant information assisting them as they move on through life. As the summer holidays approach I think it is vitally important to provide young people and their parent/guardian with information to assist over this period.

As such, I have enclosed a list of youth activities taking place within your community and I would ask that you make yourself aware of the information and pass it on to your young person so they may be afforded the opportunity to take part in local activities and participate in positive behaviour.

The information held on the attached information sheets has been provided by local organisations, groups and to the best of my knowledge is accurate. However, if you have any questions please feel free to contact the telephone number listed against each activity. Additionally, other helpful information relating to time of the activity, days they are taking place and any cost involved is also included.

I would like to thank all local primary schools, Drumchapel Life, GHA, Community Safety Services and Glasgow Life for their assistance in helping to distribute this information and thank you for taking the time to read this letter, wishing you and your young person an enjoyable time over the summer break.

With regards

Mark Barrow Schools Based Police Officer Drumchapel High School, 45 Cally Avenue, GLASGOW G15 7SQ
