P1 have been developing their creative thinking, team work and problem solving skills in our open area this week. Here are some examples of the things we have made.
Creativity in the open area

Changes to PE timetable
Primary one have practised and enhanced a range of health and wellbeing skills during their Muddy Movers sessions this year. In order to further develop the pupils’ physical competence and improve fundamental motor skills such as running, jumping, throwing and catching, one Muddy Movers session will now be replaced with a dedicated P.E. session.
Pupils will require a gym kit for the P.E. sessions and waterproof clothing/wellies for Muddy Movers. School gym kit consists of dark coloured shorts/jogging trousers and trainers; polo shirts should be worn on gym days to enable the children to change quickly and independently. Some of the P.E. sessions will take place outside in the all-weather pitches so please ensure that your child has a waterproof jacket on that day.
| Day | Class | Activity |
| Monday | All P1 classes | P.E. Session |
| Tuesday | P1b and P1c | Muddy Movers |
| Wednesday | P1a, P1d and P1e | Muddy Movers |
Please ensure that all gym bags, shoes and clothes are labelled clearly with your child’s name.
Father Stephen’s Visit
Father Stephen came to visit us today to celebrate Catholic Education Week. We enjoyed singing hymns and listening to his stories about why kindness is very important.
Sight Vocabulary
Pupils have been issued with a variety of stage and tricky words over the course of this year. Below is a leaflet with all of the words issued to date. Please continue to practise these with your child on a regular basis.
Christmas Fun
P1 had lots of fun at their Christmas party. They even had a special visitor!
