Dear Annag [head teacher Castlebay Community School), staff and pupils,
It was with such deep sadness that I heard of the passing of your pupil and friend, Eilidh, following the terrible events in Manchester.
It may be of little consolation at this time but I felt that it was important to let you know that this tragic and needless loss of life is profoundly felt by all throughout our islands, the country and indeed, beyond these shores.
