The school has enjoyed a lovely end of term service in Dalbeattie and Kirkgunzeon Parish Church. The Primary 7 pupils performed a play entitled ‘A Super Christmas,’ directed by Mrs Duncan, where some superheroes were rather worried when they thought they would be out of a job due to a ‘new superhero’ coming to the world. Meanwhile, some shepherds had also heard the news and were on the way to find baby Jesus, following a star which the angel had told them to about. On the way, they met the superheroes and all was explained. Eventually, they all found baby Jesus and the superheroes realised they could still have a useful job but that Jesus, as Saviour of us all, was there to help us all share God’s love and to feel part of his Church. Mark Smith then shared his message about Christmas with the children before we all sang the songs we had been practising, Child in a Manger and Ding Dong.

Primary 3/ 4 and the Vikings!
The Morning boys and girls at nursery had a real treat today as they were invited along to watch a Viking play performed by Primary 3 /4. It was an excellent show. All the children had lines to say and they all delivered them confidently. Together with some wonderful singing and a fantastic display of Longships, which the children had made as part of a homework task linked to their topic work, Primary 3 / 4 really did put on quite a show! Mrs Dunlop and Miss Kirkpatrick are really proud of the class for their enthusiasm, confidence and creativity. “Fabulous acting and tuneful singing- next stop Broadway!” commented Mrs Dunlop.
Primary 1 and 2 Party
Primary 1 and 2 children have just had a fantastic Christmas party. They played traditional games such as ‘I Sent a Letter,’ ‘The Farmer’s in his Den,’ ‘Hokey Cokey,’ ‘Pass The Parcel,’ ‘Musical Statues’ and ‘Corners’ together with some dancing competitions. Before juice and crisps, there was a big surprise: Santa arrived to give out some little presents! This was quite a highlight for the boys and girls. Thank you Santa! They loved your visit.

P1F Christmas Enterprise!
P1 have been busy little elves making lots of Christmas craft items to sell to our relatives! We made cards, calendars, a placemat for our Christmas dinner, reindeer food and a Christmas wreath! We started the sale by singing a song from our Nativity ‘A King is Born’ and then parents were invited to read our Elf Application forms! We would like to say THANK YOU to all our parents and relatives for coming along to help us raise £108.65 which will go towards a school trip later in the year.
