School Entrance – Nursery
Can I ask Nursery parents not to enter the school for the afternoon session from the Annan Road gate. Michelle, Crossing Patrol, has been asked not to allow any parents in; this is to ensure the safety of all children at Gretna Primary School. Thank you.
Sprint Relay
Well done to the boys who came 2nd at the recent Sprint Relay in Annan!

Health Week 2014
All of the children at Gretna Primary School enjoyed a fun packed week during our recent Health Week. Activities included Karate, Body Combat, Football, Rugby, Tennis, Step, Bowling, Healthy Food Tasting and lots more. Thank you to Miss Holmes and her School Parliament Group for organising this week.
World Record
On Friday 16th May, P7 tried to break a Guinness World Record with Jamie Oliver. They took part in a live cooking lesson for Food Revolution Day and learned about why it is important to make our own food from scratch. They made a rainbow salad wrap – some of them really liked them, some were not so sure!
