The footballers did us proud at their first competitive game against Cargenbridge Primary School Yesterday. I’ll let them tell you all about it on the blog tomorrow.

I took the team kit home for a wash!Next time it is definitely someone else’s turn!  🙂

Well done Team Holywood!!

Miss Dale

Ms Carruthers and Mrs Jardine are doing a fantastic job supporting learners at Maths Homework Club. But parent helpers needed to make sure everyone attending has all the help they need.

Miss Dale and Miss Stapleton have plans for a change to maths homework club next term – to bring it back to skills and involving parents…

More about that next term!

Please give a call if you can help.

On Friday the 6th of may p1-3 went to a church from 930 till 11 o’clock in the morning. First we got a bus trip till we got to the church. When we got to the church we met a man called Robin who was the rector who showed us around the church. We found out in our church topic that the benches that you sit on are called pews.
