The children took part in an ICT login Challenge at home recently.  Thank you to everyone who took part and supported this.  This challenge tested the speed for logging into both their computers and Glow.  The fastest speed recorded was 19secs!  This is a superb improvement from when we started this challenge which was 7 mins and 30 seconds.  Well done to all, challenge well and truly achieved!

Just a reminder… School will close early at 2.30pm on Friday 22nd December for the Christmas holiday.

Many thanks to everyone who supported our LPS’s Santa workshop, we are delighted to let you know…

Next week the children will all take part in their fabulous Christmas parties!  They are welcome to come into school on the day of the party in their party clothes or if you prefer to send them into school in their uniform then please feel free to send them in with their special party outfit to change into before their party starts.  If you wish to take your child home to help them get ready then please send a letter into school prior to their party expressing this wish as this will help us get them ready to be collected at lunchtime on the day of their party. Let the fun begin…

A quick reminder that lunch on Thursday is our Christmas menu.  Payment can be made as normal via ParentPay.

A huge well done to Emma Tomlinson who won the BBC Scotland Traditional Music Tutor of the year 2017!  We are delighted to have Emma as our lead Orchestra tutor on Strings.
