We are celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 6th March.

Please see information on the poster below.

Another great turnout for our ‘Let’s Connect’ Wellbeing afternoon!

Thank you to everyone that came along and took part in all the activities.

We are excited to be holding another ‘Let’s Connect’ wellbeing        afternoon as part of Children’s Mental Health Week. 

You are invited into school with your child/children on  Wednesday 29th of January from 1.30pm-2.45pm. There will be lots of fun activities on offer. Please see the poster below.

Please complete the online Glow form in the link below to allow us to plan activities according to numbers.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Thank you  

Starting in January we will be taking part in East Ayrshire’s Shoot to Saturn campaign. We will be encouraging our children to actively travel to school by walking, scooting or cycling.

If children travel to school by any of these methods they will earn S-miles each day. These will be calculated each week with a winning ‘Active Traveller’ class being announced. If children are not able to walk, cycle or scoot to school, we will make a circuit available at playtime for them to earn S-miles.

Please see the attached letter for more information.

We hope to see lots of active travellers in terms 3 and 4.

Thank you!

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.
