In assembly this week we learned about Children in Need. We found out about the history of the charity and what funds raised are used for. Thank you to Mrs Howie and the pupil council for organising our lucky ball raffle this week.

Head Teacher’s Awards this week were presented for a range of reasons. These included improved participation in discussions, being an excellent role model in class, being fantastic science partners during learning for demonstrating school value of kindness.Well done to all our achievers.

Our P7 playleaders were also presented with their certificates today. The P7 sports captains and vice captains have been taking part in play leader training with Amy and John from Active Schools. The play leaders will now use their skills to set up a variety of play activities for different classes at lunchtimes.

Classes were also presented certificates of participation for entering the name the gritter competition run by Dumfries and Galloway Council.  Unfortunately, the names we entered weren’t picked this time but always great to take part in local competitions.
