Best wishes for 2018 to all members of the school and wider community!

Mrs Jardine has suggested that it is time to update the look of our blog.

When we thought about it  – the last time we changed the look of the blog was in 2012. Some of our pupils weren’t even born then!!

Mrs Jardine is right – we are long overdue for a change!

I have had a wee play to see how easy it is to change things – what do you think?

Bye for now,

Miss Dale

 

Holywood is a very nice school. It is amazing. I like that all the pupils are very nice to me.

It is different because there are less pupils. I work with lots of teachers.

On a Thursday we work with four different teachers. One for art, one for Outdoor skills, one for PE and one for music.

My favourite part of Big Thursday is going out to the woods.

This week we made puppets.

We learned about pirates – we made pirates and we wrote pirate stories.

We read a story about pirates.

Some of us climbed trees in the playground as part of the Lava Game.

Erin played on the metal bars.

Daniel played sword fights.

Abigail’s favourite thing this week was making a pirate with Miss Stapleton.

Jack liked Outdoor Skills with Mr Walker.

By P1/2

We made a story map for Red Riding Hood.

It had a hill and paths in the forest. We made cottages for all the characters.

We used the map to tell the story with our puppets.

Today we had the Police in school (not really!) This Policeman made lots of arrests and made sure P1/2 were behaving.

Thanks to Paul and Hannah for sharing their holiday highlights – it would be great to hear from others.

Thank you to everyone who wrote a holiday diary – we are reading them at the moment.

Hello!

Welcome back to Holywood.

We hope you all had a great summer.

I chased the sunshine in my camper van…

And found it in Wales and on the East coast of England.

I look forward to catching up with everyone very soon.

Look out for our first social – a wee meet and greet so that you can grill / I mean have a chat with our newest staff members.

Thank you for getting organised for BIG THURSDAY at short notice.

Have a good day,

Miss Dale
