P2 will be going for an autumn walk around Catrine tomorrow afternoon, (Wednesday 29th September) instead of Friday this week due to the weather forecast looking better for tomorrow. Please ensure your child comes to school wearing suitable footwear and a jacket to go on the walk.

Pupils have been given a Book Bag to take home today. Each bag contains a reading book, Maths Week Scotland Activity Grid and a Maths Toolkit Scrapbook. As this week is Maths Week Scotland, pupils have been given some activities on the grid that they can try at home. We encourage all families to support their children’s learning by getting involved with the activities.
Please ensure Book Bags are returned on Friday so that pupils can be issued with a new reading book.
Thanks for your support.

This week Primary 2 have been learning about what lives in the ocean, French words and colours, revising sounds and partitioning 2 digit numbers. We celebrated Gracie-Leigh’s 6th birthday on Wednesday and have been doing lots of learning through play activities.
We also learned about a volcano that has erupted in Spain when we were watching Newsround this week and had lots of questions to ask. We are going to be busy working together to answer the questions we have about volcanoes.
Here are our ‘Star of the Day’ awards for this week, well done everyone!
Pupils have been given a homework pack to take home today that contains materials that can be used to complete activities at home.

This week Primary 2 have been busy creating their own rainbow fish, revising their initial sounds, continuing to explore numbers to 100 and looking for bugs outdoors.
It has been another busy week in Primary 2. We have started our daily tooth brushing routine this week and the pupils have been doing a fantastic job of brushing their teeth after lunch each day. We have read the book ‘The Rainbow Fish’ and will be doing lots of work on this throughout the term. We have also been revising sounds, exploring numbers to 100, building, painting, playing and having lots of fun!
Check out our ‘Star of the Day’ awards for this week too, well done everyone!
A wee reminder that the PE days for P2 are a Tuesday and Friday. We will continue with PE sessions outside until further notice. Your child should come to school wearing their school uniform on top (polo shirts, shirts, sweatshirts, school hoodies, cardigans etc) and a pair of shorts/trackies or leggings, with trainers on these days. This means they can take a full part in any outdoor PE activities. Please ensure any jewellery (especially earrings) is removed before coming to school.
This week Primary 2 have been revising their sounds, working on their writing and learning about numbers to 100. They have also had lots of fun getting messy with the play dough and playing outside with the loose parts.
Primary 2 have settled in well to their new class and have had a busy first full week. They have worked hard to create their class charter, have been exploring numbers and have been very creative. What a super week, well done Primary 2!
