World Book Day Fun
The whole school enjoyed celebrating World Book Day. There were lots of literacy activities planned during the day including a reading tombola, where children were given a ticket which linked to a book which they could read with their buddy. The house challenge was to create a book cover on each classroom door. The doors look wonderful! 
It was lots of fun because we dressed up as our favourite book characters such as Elsa and Anna. Elyza P1
I think Rowan in P3 and Rowan in P1 looked amazing. Olivia P1
I was dressed as Horrid Henry from Horrid Henry’s underpants. I was really proud of my costume Jack P2
By Daniel P4, Elyza P1, Olivia P1, Jack P2 and Rowan P3.
Have a Wonderful Christmas!
We would like to wish all the pupils, friends and families a fantastic Christmas and a Happy New Year. We will see you all back at school on Thursday 5th January at 9am.
Stars in Our School
Stars in Our Schools is a celebration of school support staff who work hard in schools to support staff and children. This year Stars in Our Schools day is today, Friday 25 November. We held an assembly to celebrate our wonderful support staff in school. Each class then completed some activities to highlight how much we appreciate all they do for Uplawmoor Primary.
UNISON promotes this day as an opportunity to celebrate the wonderful work they do every day and to make sure the world knows just how vital they are to children’s education.
Have a look at some of our pupils’ beautiful work!
