Active Travel to School

Our JRSO officers were delighted to launch our ‘Shoot to Saturn’ campaign at a recent assembly.

Similar to last year’s ‘Journey to Jupiter’, Loanhead are taking part in ‘Shoot to Saturn’. Children earn one s-mile for walking to school and one for walking home (or cycling, scooting, parking & striding etc), with bonus s-miles earned if an adult accompanies them on their journey to and from school.

Bonus S-Miles can also be earned by children making an active journey at the weekend, or completing the daily mile in school.

Our JRSO officers will be responsible for collecting the number of s-miles earned across the school every Friday, with regular updates on the school’s progress being shared at assemblies.

Look out for our poster on the gates next to the office.

Keep walking!

Harvest Service

Thank you to all our families who kindly donated food to this year’s Harvest Service.

We would also like to thank our P7 children, pictured below, who led our service and Reverend Cameron for joining us.

All food will be donated to the Foodbank this year.

Thank you for your continued support.

 

Killeween

The children have had a great couple of days celebrating Killieween.

Thank you to ‘Friends of Loanhead’ for the donation of snacks for the parties in the class on Friday.

Another big thank you to ‘Friends of Loanhead’ and all the parent volunteers for organising and running the Halloween discos on Thursday night. All the children appeared to really enjoy themselves.

Halloween

We hope you enjoyed the benefit of an extra hour in bed this weekend after some very busy, but fun days!
