The Grinch

Hi everyone,

In class during our Christmas Day on Thursday 10th we will be watching the older version of the Grinch. This is rated PG so if you do not wish your child to watch this then please let me know by note or email.

If you have no objection then you do not need to do anything.

Many thanks

We are very lucky to be having one of the active school co-ordinators working with us in P5. He will be leading sport activities every day for the next 4 weeks. Therefore, the children will need suitable footwear and a jacket in school each day as these sessions will be outside.
