Our doors open at 8.45am every morning.  Classes are supervised by classroom assistants and Mrs Arbuckle is usually in class preparing work and catching up with the children.  (Coco the cat got a new cat flap!)

When the children come in to class, they take off their jackets, unpack their bags ( snacks in their basket and homework out on the table to be marked) and order lunch on the board.  It really helps to settle the children and we are ready to start at 9am.

When all that is done, they settle down to read a book from their book basket.  We were reading books we knew from Primary 1 (this develops confidence in reading) but we have now moved on to reading our much loved “Floppy” books.  We love reading them and looking at the wonderful illustrations.
