Hello Everyone

We would like to wish all parents and children a very Happy New Year! Our first week back flew in and we are delighted to see everyone feeling healthy again. The last couple of weeks before Christmas saw lots of us with horrible coughs and colds! We also would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for all the lovely cards and gifts you gave us at the end of last term. We were very lucky teachers indeed! It is much appreciated.

We are delighted to welcome Alanah to our class and hope she will be very happy at Cults Primary.

Our timetable remains the same as last term. We will focus on Numeracy at the beginning of the week and Literacy at the end. Our Topic is “The Sixties” and we hope the children will enjoy it.

Monday         PE

Tuesday         ART

Wednesday   Library

Friday            French

We aim to issue most homework on a Wednesday for the following Monday and spelling will be given on a Friday for the following Friday. Please can you remind your child to pack their homework jotters as we have yet to see ALL of them handed in on the correct day! Many thanks for your help with this.

There is a lot of lost property at this time of year so please can you ensure all items of clothing are named.

Several children need their “wet weather activity” replaced.

It would be great if everyone could “donate” a box of tissues to our class as we have totally run out. Thank you!

The First Minister’s Reading Challenge

We would like to remind everybody about this activity. We hope the children are reading regularly and completing their diaries. More details about the challenge can be found at www.readingchallenge.scot. We know we have some very keen readers in the class so if anyone is enjoying a book so much that they cannot put it down, please feel free to bring it in on Fridays for Golden Time or as a wet weather activity! I’m sure we can find a nice, quiet corner for you to snuggle up in!

Class Blog

Our eventual plan is for the children to take responsibility for this blog. Katie kindly agreed to start us off…but due to a technical hitch, her blog cannot yet be seen! Sorry, Katie.
