Royston Enrolment Week

It is our second enrolment  week this week (9th – 13th January) If you are looking to join our Royston family, please visit our school office this week.

To help persuade you to enrol your child at Royston Primary School, today P7 wrote persuasive reports to give you relevant information about the school.

Here is what one of our p7’s wrote today:

Welcome to Royston

I have been at Royston primary for 7 years and I’m going to tell you why you should send your child here. Since I have been at Royston I have had the chance to make amazing friends and learn lots of new things to help me in later life.

Food

Firstly, let’s talk about food and things related to food. We have a magnificent kitchen where the primary 7 usually learn to cook different food and practical skills. Another thing to say is that up at the backlands (up Roystonhill) we have been planting different vegetables. We are hoping to use this food in our cooking classes later in the year.

Clubs

Secondly, let’s talk about the school clubs. Now we have loads of clubs at this school: basketball, football, dance, homework club and many more fun activities for your children to enjoy after school.

Staff

Now let’s talk about the staff. The staff are always trying to help you have the best time at school and the Support for Learning staff are doing what they can to help you with everything. Ms Young is the primary 1/2 teacher and she helps teach children in a positive way. She stays calm when she teaches and supports all children in her class. Mrs McShane is the head teacher and has a way of making sure the whole school runs smoothly with lots of interesting events such as trips and visitors to give some variety to our week.

Playground

Finally, our playground is superb. Luckily, we have a bike shelter to keep bikes and scooters safe and lots of playground games on the ground for the children to play on and the PSAs will always have things for you to play with.

Conclusion

Because of the reasons I have given, you should definitely send your child here because they will absolutely love it here and if you have any further questions contact the head teacher or office.

December Newsletter

There are a number of important outings and events happening over the coming weeks. I do hope you can join with us and support your children at as many as possible…

Christmas Choir

The choir have been practicing very hard with Mr Doherty during lunch times and now have a full set of Christmas carols and songs to perform. Dates for performances are:

·         6th December – Forge ASDA 1.30-2.30pm

·         13th December – Forge Shopping Centre (near Primark) 11.30-12.30 and 1-2pm

·         14th December – Glasgow Fort – 3-4.30pm (near to Next)

·         15th December – St Rollox Tesco 11-12pm

·         20th December – Buchanan Galleries (charitable event) 10.45-12noon

It would be great if you could come along and see the pupils sing for a short time in order to show your support.

Christmas Service

Christmas Service will be on 16th December at 9.45am. Pupils in Primary 2/1 and 7 will be performing the nativity play. All pupils are practicing very hard at the moment, and I hope you can come and support all their efforts. All families and friends welcome to attend. The service will be followed by tea and coffee with mince pies.

Christmas Jumper Day

On December 16th we will be having Christmas jumper day. If your child wishes to wear their Christmas jumper they pay £1 and this money will be donated to charity. We hope to support people at Christmas time who are not as fortunate as ourselves. I do hope you will support this by allowing your child to take part.

Christmas Market

Primary 7 pupils have been invited along to the Christmas Market Place at St Enoch. They will be attending on 12th December at 1.30pm. They will get the chance to taste different foods from around the world, and learn a little about how the food is produced.

 

School holidays

School will close at 2.30pm on the 21st December 2015

School will re-open at 9am on the 5th January 2016

 

 

North Glasgow Community Food Initiative

This year we have had a very exciting addition to the Royston family! The North Glasgow Community Food Initiative (NGCFI) have started the Royston Food Hub in our school.

The NGCFI have already started cookery and nutrition classes for P7’s and members of the local community. There is also now a Fruit Barra which sells fresh fruit and vegetables at a great price. Come visit our Fruit Barra which is run by a team of NGCFI volunteers, Primary 7 pupils and Mr Steer. It is based either in the school playground or just inside the main entrance every Monday from 2.45pm to 3.15pm.

Here is the link to the NGCFI Website.

You can also find them on Twitter (@NGCFI_Royston).
