Thank you so much to the very kind parents/carers who have handed in some books for us to add to our library.
Please remember to have a look for any ‘Mauchline PS’ library or reading books when you are clearing our for Santa’s visit.
Just give them to your child to return or hand them into the office.
Our library is still a little emptier than it was after providing reading books for everyone during school closure earlier in the year. So we are asking everyone to have another clear out at home.
Please have a look for any misplaced school library or reading books and return them to school. We can quarantine them and then get them straight back on the shelves.
Also, if you have any ‘used/unwanted’ children’s books that are in good condition, please feel free to donate them to the school. We can check if they are one of our Accelerated Reader books and add them to our colour-coded library.
Below is a link to a great website ‘Dyslexia Unwrapped’. This is helpful for children 8 years and up.

Below is a presentation completed by young people talking about their experiences of Dyslexia.
Please find a selection of learning activities for your child to access at home should they need to self-isolate or stay at home due to being unwell. If your child is too unwell to do any work while at home there is no pressure to complete the tasks. These are here to access as you wish. We do hope that you find this helpful.
A new page has been added at the top called ‘HOME LEARNING’ and this information will always be available if required at any point throughout the session.
Generic Home Learning Activities for P1-P7 20.21
P1 and P2 Home Learning Grids 20.21
P3 P4 P5 Home Learning Grids 20.21
P6 and P7 Home Learning Grids 20.21
Please find attached the parent calendar for this session. It is also available on the school APP.
Please check your child’s Blog page as it contains a ‘Meet the Teacher’ presentation.
This will allow you to get to know your child’s teacher before the parent/carer phone calls next week.
We have used the above resource in school to assist our younger pupils with their phonics and early reading skills. It is a fun and engaging resource.
We have just received information that the resource is now free to download – details below.
To help you get back into the swing of things, we’re making Teach Your Monster to Read free to download from Wednesday.
We know it’s been a very challenging year and we hope to help out a little by giving you the entire series of award-winning literacy games for nothing.
The not-for-profit app is approved by the government’s DfE Hungry Little Minds campaign and has been played by over 22 million kids across the world.
Once downloaded, there’s nothing else to pay. Please let your friends know so we can help their kids learn to read too.
Oh, and if you want to play across a few devices, make sure you sign up for a free account at teachyourmonstertoread.com first.
Download your Teach Your Monster to Read app between Weds September 16th and Tues September 22nd 2020:

What a beautiful morning to welcome back the first half of our P2-P7 pupils – we missed you all!
A special welcome to our new P1 pupils who were all looking so smart and ready to learn.
We can’t wait to greet the second half of our pupils tomorrow. Let’s hope the sun is still shining.
