In celebration of\u00a0 Book Week Scotland our P1\u20133 families were invited into the school to discover the fantastic bags gifted to children by the Scottish Government and Scottish Book Trust.\ud83d\udcdaAll wrapped in rainbow <\/span>paper the ‘postman’ delivered these gifts to the school this afternoon\u00a0 and the boys and girls were left in suspense to find out what could be inside.. \ud83c\udf81\ud83d\udce6<\/span><\/p>\n

Inside each bag there were between 2\u20134 wonderful books, a fun activity booklet, and either a card game with maths resources or a magnetic whiteboard with numbers \u2013 all designed to make learning at home exciting and enjoyable. We also explored the online resources that go hand\u2011in\u2011hand with the bags, giving families even more ways to support literacy and numeracy together.<\/span><\/div>\n
The highlight of the day was, of course, handing out the bags in class. The children\u2019s faces lit up, before during and after the wrapping paper was removed<\/span><\/div>\n
