What a fabulous end to the term! 

The troops at Kirkcolm Primary had a fantastic day to see out the school term today and get us all into the Christmas spirit of things for the festivities that will be upon us in a matter of days now! (Well that one really snuck up on us….) 

In the morning we handed out Christmas cards tot he community that both classes made yesterday. We hope if you got a card through your door and even if you didn’t – please know that we all here at Kirkcolm wish you a very merry Christmas! 

Following that (and a wee play park stop, understandably…) we then enjoyed our Christmas Parties – filled with lots of games and prizes and a right good dancing session; we all had lots of fun! The House Captains were dearly missed during these sessions as the poor pupils had to suffer the ruthless judging of their teachers during games! 

Finally at the end of the day, both classes snuggled up as best we could with some comfy pillows and blankets/snacks and sweeties for a movie afternoon. Miss Douglas’s class were in the spirit of things watching Nativity! Miss McNicoll’s class followed up their class novel this term with watching its film adaption; Wonder. 

Finally! We have some huge, whopping thank yous to give to BOTH Leswalt and Kirkcolm community councils who have very kindly gifted both schools with some extra additional Christmas treats, a selection box AND a £20 Argos Voucher for each pupil to spend at Argos. The pupils were absolutely over the moon with these gifts and the rest of us are so pleased to see them happy and healthy and grateful at the end of another busy term! 

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
