I was delighted to recently welcome all our students into the school for the new term and it was great to see them all settle so quickly into their classes and routines last week.

I would also like to extend a warm welcome to parents and carers and hope that you are also enjoying being back in the routine that each school year brings!

Over the next week or two we will be updating the school blog with information that will help you keep up to date with events and activities taking place within the school during the next term.  Events such as after school clubs, gym days, class assemblies, parent council meetings etc will all be noted here.    I trust you will find this be helpful and I look forward to meeting with you at the events we will be hosting with the children in the school over the next school year.

We look forward to welcoming pupils back to school.

The children recently took part in a wonderful African experience and they didn’t even leave the school building!  Using the latest in Virtual Reality technology, every pupil was given the opportunity to visit Africa and see Elephants up close and person.

As you can see in the pictures below, the children wore Virtual Reality goggles and were instantly transported to an African plain filled with elephants having a cool down in the water.  The images viewed by the Virtual Reality goggle wearers were so believable that when Mrs Milne put the goggles on she actually took a step back when she found herself nose to tusk with an elephant!

Many thanks to Craig Hume, Director at Utopia Computers for bringing such an unusual field trip into the classroom.

This Thursday is a dress down day,  suggested donation of 50p.

Please note that our end of year summer service will take place at the New Laigh Kirk at 10am.  All are welcome to attend.

Should bad weather stop our attendance, parents/carers will be notified by text from the school as early as possible.

Our school blog is currently getting a facelift!  Please bear with us while this process takes place.

Please note that the menu on offer in the cafeteria on Monday 27th is our Summer Picnic Menu which consists of:

Hot Dog

Aqua Juice Drink

Daisy Cupcake

Fruit kebab.

…DEAN

Congratulations to all the children in Dean House who worked so well together to reach this achievement!  Also well done to Howard who came a close second followed by Kay then Piersland.

The children in Dean, alongside Star Challenge Winners, will now enjoy a movie treat in school next week – please note that permission letters have been sent home to all children invited to view the movie and these must be signed and returned to allow your child to participate in the movie treat.  Once again, well done to all the children on a marvellous year achieving points for their Houses.
