Christmas is fast approaching and we are well and truly up to our festive eyeballs in reindeer and snowflakes!!

Our dress rehearsal is on Tuesday. Thank you for all the reindeer antlers and santa hats already handed in. It would be great if we could have a few more. Please continue to go over song words as it really helps to build the children’s confidence.

The Parent Council Christmas disco is on Tuesday evening at 6:00pm.

Our Christmas concert performances are on Thursday and Friday afternoon and we cant wait to see you all there.

Christmas lunch is on Thursday which we are sure will be just as yummy as ever!

Reading – Your child will receive a new reading book on Monday after which we will stop reading for this term in order to manage the various Christmas activities that will be happening each day.

Common Words – go and no.  Primary 1 homework will be given out on Monday and should be completed for the Thursday.

Phonics – This week we will be introducing the sounds v and w. You will find the sound activity in the P1 Home School books on Monday and Thursday.

P2 will be reading and writing 3 letter words and will get spelling homework on Monday which should be completed for Thursday. These words should be practised each night at home, ready for the spelling test on Friday. There was no spelling test last Friday as we were visiting Dan up at South St Nicholas Church.

Number – Primary 1 and 2 will continue to work with addition with a focus on ‘stories of 4 and 5′ for P1 and ‘stories of  10′ for P2.
