Parental partnership

At this week’s Parents’ Evening/ Afternoon Tuesday 10th October evening/Wednesday 11th October afternoon, our main focus is our e-portfolios. We have workshops running every half hour in the ICT suite and we would encourage you to attend.

E-Portfolio Workshop

We intend to set  tables in the gym hall with lap tops to encourage parents to  make comments on their child’s e-portfolio and school website.  You will also have the opportunity to taste our school dinners.  Please come and try our delicious food.

Our parent council suggested that families donate items for class wet weather boxes.  Empty boxes will be in the hall for each class.

We are looking for P6 and P7 children to help during our Parents’ night and afternoon.  Could you please complete the form below if you are available to help.

*** BOOK FAIR FINAL TOTAL ***

A great big thank you to everyone who supported our visit from the Travelling Book Fair. We sold almost £2,000 worth of books which allows us to spend £1138.15 on books for our library and classrooms.

A special thank you to the parent helpers who helped run the fair this year. Your help is very much appreciated.

E-Portfolio Workshop

As part of our improvement plan for every child to have an e-portfolio, we would like to invite parents to attend this workshop to support your child in their learning.  These 20 minute workshops will run during the school parent evenings and are open to parents in the ECC and school.

For our younger children, parents will be given their child’s username and password at the workshop.  We will show you how to post and comment on a post as this is an important part of our parental partnership.

The ECC will be open for a parent drop in session on Wednesday 11th October between 4-5pm.

Please complete the form below if you are able to attend the workshops.

Intergenerational Project

We had our first visit to Howard House on Thursday.  The children and residents all seemed to enjoy meeting each other for the first time.  We look forward to watching these relationships develop.

The residents enjoyed listening to our singing…

Here are some photos of our visit…

P7 Swimming

Every Tuesday Mrs Lawson’s class go to  The Galleon to get  swimming lessons . We go to either improve our swimming or, for the people who are unsure, learn to swim and feel more comfortable in the water. We all really enjoy going for swimming lessons because it is fun and a good experience for us as young people because swimming is a life skill and is a very crucial skill to learn . Our swimming teachers are Ron , Maureen and Anne. They are very nice and help us enjoy swimming even more! We cant wait for the next few weeks at The Galleon .

We are excited to announce that our annual STEM Fortnight will be taking place week beginning 13th November!

This will be a fantastic opportunity to engage our pupils with a variety of activities to convey the importance of (STEM) Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics in their daily lives.

Are you a parent, grand parent, auntie, friend of the school? Do you work or have an interest in any of the STEM areas? Are you an engineer or do you have links to the engineering industry?  If the answer is YES, then we would be delighted to have your help and support during our STEM Fortnight.

For instance, we would be delighted to hear from a range of occupations including:

doctor, nurse, air traffic controller, pilot, graphic designer, accountant, architect, mechanic etc

Could you please leave your details below and Mrs Beveridge will contact you.
