Today we were presented with the cheque for £7500 which will fund the projects voted for by our P4-7 pupils.

The projects they selected were an outdoor classroom, den building equipment and outdoor experiences in our local area. We are very excited to start planning for these exciting opportunities.

Thank you for all the harvest donations that you sent in. Our P7 leaders took the donations to The Zone today. Click on the photos below to see them more closely.

After our maths week quiz, the house points in October are in. As you can see Finlas have an early lead but there will be plenty more opportunities to win points over the rest of the session. We’ll done everyone.

Thank you for your feedback to our September evaluation question.  Click on the link below to see the feedback received.

September You Said We Did

Primary 4-7 visited the Community Centre to vote for the projects they would like to see funded. They have created project proposals and cast their votes today. Looking forward to finding out the results of the voting. Hopefully they’ll be able to come along with parents and carers to the Funding Event on Saturday between 11am and 3pm in the Community Centre to support 2 projects proposed by our Parent Council.

Here are our house captains helping to load up all the rag bag donations made. The total weight collected was 379kg. What a great recycling effort. Thank you everyone for supporting this to benefit our school.

I am delighted to introduce our House Captains and Vice Captains for this year. I was so impressed at the hard work they put into their speeches and I’m sure they are going to be an amazing team.

I’d like to introduce our new Junior Road Safety Officers. I’m sure Aaron and Eilidh will have lots of good ideas to improve road safety in and around the school.

We would like to share what we will be learning throughout term 1. click on the photos below to see an enlarged version. I’m sure you’ll agree they’re going to be working hard.

Good morning, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. The homework for the week this week is spelling and maths. I have attached a copy of the spelling words for each group – these should be practised each day for our spelling test on Friday. I have also challenged children to identify their sound of the week this week in their environment – can they spot any words in the supermarket with the ‘oe’ sound, on street signs etc. For maths we are focusing on place value in school, their worksheet to complete at home is linked to their current learning. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask. Have a good day  Miss McGrane.
