Christmas Party

We had a ball at our Christmas Party on Wednesday.  We all looked so smart in our party outfits and we had great fun playing party games and dancing.

We were even joined by a very special visitor!

We hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and can’t wait to see all the children again on the 9th January.

 

School Show

The children in P1 will be performing their “Christmas Cracker” at the break of the school show ‘Panto Pandemonium’ on Wednesday and Thursday night this week.

Pupils should come to school on both evenings at 6.10pm wearing a Christmas jumper, hairband or hat if they have one. If they do not have something Christmassy to wear pupils should just come dressed in casual clothes.

Thanks for your support.

Week ending 2nd December

Well done to Ellie who won the competition in P1 for her beautifully bright jumper design on the “Be Bright, Be Seen” day last week.  Here she is with her winning design and her prizes.

Mrs Ferguson was so proud of Poppy this week for conquering her fear of the big slide at the park.  Just look at her go!

This week in literacy we have been learning the “g” and “l” sounds.  As well as practising the formation of the letters and making words with the new sounds the children also completed fun activities relating to the sounds. They drew pictures of Mrs Govans and Mrs Goudie, they wrapped up some gifts and built houses for Goldilocks and the Three Bears for the “g” sound. They sliced up some lemons and squeezed them out to make lemonade, they made some lemon lollipops and built ladders for the “l” sound.

In Maths we have been working our socks off with addition calculations.  We have been learning to use number lines and tools like a rekenrek to work out the answers. At the end of the week we focused on adding on 1 and 2 to a calculation which we all found super easy and I had to challenge everyone with some extra tricky calculations.

We have been working hard in the afternoons to practise our songs for the upcoming school show and we even managed to decorate the classroom on Thursday so we are all officially in the Christmas Spirit!

Have a lovely weekend and we’ll see you next week.
