Child flu vaccine: help beat flu with a wee scoosh | ||||||
In Scotland, all children aged 2 to 5 years (not yet in school) offered the nasal (nose) spray flu vaccine. | ||||||
To help raise awareness about the nasal (nose) spray vaccine and how it’s the easiest and safest way for children to get protected against flu, Public Health Scotland is launching a brand-new campaign titled ‘Help beat flu with a wee scoosh’.
We’ve developed a suite of static and video assets, alongside suggested captions and alternative text for you to share across your social media channels.Please feed these into your planned activity regularly using the hashtag #WeeScoosh. Using the hashtag is important as it allows us to monitor usage, and helps to informs future campaigns. The toolkit also includes digital banners and suggested copy for email, app notifications and text messages. Please feel free to share these resources with any relevant channels or networks. There are also a range of resources available on the Public Health Scotland website for children aged 2-5 including informed consent leaflets, briefings and videos. For more information visit www.nhsinform.scot/childflu Your support is much appreciated. |

Welcome back everyone for a new school year.
We have had a very successful first few days and look forward to many more together.
Our new children in both school and nursery have settled well and are already well on their learning journey.
We would like to wish our former pupils good luck their first year at Inverkeithing High School and Dollar Academy.
We would like to wish all our North Queensferry families a wonderful festive season. Well done for all your hard work this term. Enjoy the holidays and making memories.
See you all in the new year.
We are so proud of our older pupils who have taken on the roles of learning buddies to support and encourage younger pupils in their learning. You are continuing to hold the values of the school by displaying determination, ambition and respect for others in their stages of learning.
We are lucky to have such a wonderful set of role models for our school. Great work everyone.
Well done to Primaries 3 and 4 for representing the school at the Athletics Festival on Wednesday 29th November. You did an amazing job with your behaviour and attitudes to the challenge and to other people you met during the experience.
We are so proud of how you worked hard together and showed excellent determination throughout the morning, mirroring our school values. Fabulous work everyone!
Thank you to all adults who took the time to come and celebrate St Andrew’s day with us on Thursday 30th November. We had a wonderful time showing off our hard work with our Scottish Country Dancing.
Thank you also for the enthusiasm shown at the end of the shared Learning by joining in with pupils to dance the Gay Gordons together. Great memories created for all involved.
Below are the class overviews for learning during this coming term. Please enjoy reading.
P.1/2
Well, we have already had a great start to our Term 2 learning. Everyone has come back ready and enthusiastic to learn. We will be exploring the festivals and celebrations that this term brings through literacy, numeracy, music and art. There will also be a great deal of work in our enterprise project for the Christmas Fayre, so look out for our wonderful products coming your way soon! In addition to all of this we have a small matter of Nativity during the term, and we look forward to sharing our acting and singing talents with you all in December.
This term our gym days will remain the same, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Thanks in advance for your support and encouragement this term.
In P3/4/5 our homework will be given to pupils on a Thursday and will be returned the following Monday. This homework will include reading, spelling and a choice of one activity from our homework grid. Our P.E will be Monday afternoons and Wednesday morning.
Our topic this term is enterprise; this will involve pupils designing, creating, making and selling a product for our Christmas Fair. We will be carrying out background research, illustrating our product posters and advertisements, as well as interviewing for job roles.
In literacy P3/4/5 will be learning how to create persuasive posters that will help us showcase our Christmas product. We will be learning to persuade others to buy our product through using powerful adjectives and bossy verbs.
In numeracy we will be learning different strategies in addition and subtraction, as well as solving word problems. Some of us will be learning these strategies using decimal numbers. We will also be learning all about money. We will be learning how to recognise different amounts of money, how to count different amounts, as well as profit, budgeting and loss.
This term P5/6/7 will learning about a different country as their topic work. They voted to study Vietnam.
In our writing work we are learning to write informatively. We are taking part in the ‘Mock Court’ programme which incorporates a significant amount of our literacy work.
In maths we are learning about different strategies to help us add and subtract. We are also learning position in a mathematical sense.
Our PE days remain Tuesdays and Thursdays. We will be learning about Scottish Country Dance and Rugby. Some PE may take place outside so please pack a warm layer just in case.
Homework will continue to go out on a Thursday to be returned on the following Monday.
Primary 5/6/7 had the opportunity to work with the BBC recently to produce a short report about our iconic bridges.
They had a great experience learning about how these reports are planned, fact checked and created for production to an audience.
See the final report here:
