SUPPORTED STUDY A huge thank you to all the young people who have attended the Supported Study sessions on offer this week – there has been great attendance across the week and it has been great to see pupils making the effort to get in to school for 7:45am! An overview of the next two weeks is attached with some amendments and additions.
GRANGE ADVENT REVISION CALENDAR A huge thank you to staff and pupils who are working on this joint project to highlight various effective study skills – please encourage your son/daughter to try out some of the tips and techniques. These will be released daily (including at weekends) until the Christmas Holidays.
SENIOR PHASE ASSESSMENTS As intimated last week our Senior Phase Assessment block will take place from the 7th to the 21st January 2022. The timetable for these will be issued to pupils next week.
S3 PARENTS EVENING We look forward to virtually meeting with S3 Parents and Carers on Wednesday 8th December. Emails were issued earlier this week to allow parents to book appointments. Please contact the school office if you have not received this email.
GRANGE PARENT COUNCIL RAFFLE The Parent Council ’12 Days of Christmas’ raffle is underway and we are grateful for their ongoing support of the school in creative and fun ways! There’s still time to participate – please purchase your tickets on ParentPay!
LFD TESTING/HEALTH and SAFETY A reminder that LFD Asymptomatic Testing kits are available from the school office.
TIME OUT OF CLASS Over the last few weeks we have noticed an increase in the number of pupils asking to be released from class to get a drink from the water fountains in the street. This is having an increasingly negative impact on learning and teaching and resulting in the loss of valuable time.
Therefore, from Monday, we encourage pupils to come prepared with a bottle of water (if needed) which they can refill before school, during interval or at lunchtime. This preparation should remove the need to be released for class for this purpose and allow our young people to focus on their learning without interruption to their lesson.
Many thanks in anticipation of your support in this matter.
