Following a very successful swap shop at Halloween, we are now kindly asking for any unwanted Christmas Jumpers, t-shirts or dresses, to be donated ahead of Christmas.
These will be available (for free) at our Christmas Fayre and Christmas shows.
Thank you, in advance, for your support.
We celebrated World Children’s Day today by taking part in a whole school online assembly with many other schools across Scotland. We learned about the importance of climate change and how this links to Children’s rights.
Today also marks the birthday of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child; which has recently became a part of Scottish law.
Having heard from other children across Scotland leading climate change campaigns, this has inspired us to encourage our community to take action!

This week is Anti-Bullying Week.
This year’s theme is ‘Choose Respect’
This week, children will learn more about what it means to be respectful to others and why this is important. They will talk about what bullying is and what help they can get if they or someone they know is experiencing bullying.
Mutual Respect is one of our school values here at Drongan Primary. Please help us to continue to foster and encourage respectful behaviour in our pupils.
The link below will give you more information on bullying. Please take time to speak to your children about any concerns they may have.

Thank you!
Following on from our successful ‘Dress to Express’ Day, we are continuing to learn more about equality and diversity as part of February’s Diversity Awareness Month.
In class, your children will learn more about these terms through a variety of activities and discussions.
To help your children accept themselves and others as they are, this picture book about diversity will help them to respect all the differences that make us unique.
Please enjoy reading it together.
Friday is Dress to Express Day at Drongan Primary School. As you may know, this week we are supporting and raising awareness of Children’s Mental Health. Supported by Place2Be the theme of this year’s Children’s Mental Health Week is ‘My Voice Matters’.
Pupils and staff are asked to help raise awareness on Friday, 2nd February by dressing to express. You may choose to dress in your favourite colour. You might choose a colour which expresses how you’re feeling or wear your hair in a certain way. Either way, Friday is Dress to Express Day and your chance to express yourself!
As you know, it has never been more important to support our pupils’ mental health and wellbeing. We all play an important role. If you would like to check out Place2Be’s free resources, please visit their website.
We are excited to be holding another ‘Let’s Connect’ wellbeing afternoon as part of Children’s Mental Health Week.
Your are invited into school with your child/children on Wednesday 31st of January from 1.30pm-2.45pm. There will be lots of fun activities on offer and all we are asking for is a small donation of a £1 to support Place 2 Be Children’s Mental Health Charity.
Please complete the online Glow form in the link below to allow us to plan activities according to numbers.
