Hello Everyone!

I hope everyone is safe and well. It is a difficult time for all of us and we are going to work as a team to overcome this virus pandemic.

Please login to Glow and access the Google Classroom tile to make sure it is working. I have sent invitations to all my pupils. Please accept the invitation. Glow login details are stapled on the front page of each child’s diary. If your child does not have Glow login details because of absences, please contact the school office to obtain them.

To access Glow:
Google “Glow” – click on “Glow rm unify” – put in your child’s username and password – tick the “remember me” box and click on the “save” option which should appear. (This will save you time having to do this every time you log on).  Don’t worry if it doesn’t appear! You will then see the “Launch Pad”, with a “Google Classroom” tile. Click on it and our class will appear. We have not started using the online learning scheme yet, but it is best to be prepared.

Please stay safe and healthy!

Mrs. Patra

Apart from working hard in studying, we like to keep our body fit and active through lots of exercises . We love doing cosmic yoga and dancing with Maximo!

We have been learning about the invisible germs in our hands and how we can be germ smart. We are taking great care of our hands by washing them with soap and water for 20 seconds. We are practicing to wash our hands now, before and after snacks or lunch or coming from the play ground or toilets. We designed posters on being germ smart, which was great fun!

Our first STEM week was very exciting and informative for us and we had lots of visitors. Among the busy schedule, we managed to do our regular work and play in P1.1.

Last Friday we had another visitor: Richard from RNLI (Royal National Lifeboats Institution). He told us about their organisation and how they save lives using the lifeboats. We were amazed to find out that all the members are volunteers, and in our eyes they were real life heroes. Richard also told us how we can be smart near water and what should we do if we see someone is drowning.

On Friday a lovely ranger from Whitelee Countryside came to visit us. She told us all about the leatherback turtles who are in trouble because of the rubbish thrown into the sea. We took part in a guessing game and were shocked to know that some rubbish like glass, plastics and tin cans take hundreds of years to disintegrate!

We had been visited by Gemma, who works in Dog Trust. She told us how we can be dog smart by simply following five happy rules.

In our small world area, we now have water beads along with lots of sea animals. It was fun touching and playing with the water beads and finding out the hidden animals!
