Welcome to Room 7

Welcome to room 7’s blog! It has been an absolute delight meeting all the boys and girls this week and getting to know them.

A couple of admin points for next week:

  • Our PE days are Monday and Thursday. Please not that our policy is that all jewellery has to be removed for P.E. Please can earrings be removed or provide a bag to put them in so that your child is able to participate in PE.
  • Please can you check to make sure that all jumpers and cardigans are labelled – I’ve already got one in class if anyone is missing one.

Some things we have enjoyed about our week:

M – I liked doing the tasks.

T – I liked learning new things.

C – I like doing the maths.

K – I liked doing maths

K – I liked playing with the kitchen.

M – I liked doing the painting.

E – I liked making new friends.

L – I like exploring new things.

C – I liked making new friends.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and I will see you on Monday.

Welcome to Room 4!

Hello everyone,

What a fantastic first week we’ve had in Primary 1/2! The classroom has been full of smiles and plenty of excitement as we got to know each other. The children have settled in so well – meeting their new teachers and making new friends.

PE days

Our PE sessions will be every Tuesday and Wednesday, and we’re mixing things up with a blend of indoor and outdoor activities – weather depending! To help your child have the best experience, please send them to school dressed in comfy, ready-to-move clothes, including:

  • Leggings or shorts

  • A polo shirt or t-shirt

  • Trainers or shoes they can easily fasten themselves

  • A waterproof jacket – just in case the weather surprises us!

For safety and comfort, please also make sure long hair is tied back and jewellery is removed before coming to school.

Important Update – Meet the Teacher Event

I’m looking forward to welcoming you to our Meet the Teacher event! Please note that the date for P1/2 Room 4 has been rescheduled to Wednesday 20th August, instead of Thursday 21st August.

Session times remain the same:

  • 3:20pm – 4:20pm

  • 4:20pm – 5:20pm

Please note that this date change applies only to Room 4. I apologise for any inconvenience and really appreciate your understanding.

I can’t wait to see you there and share all the exciting things your child will be learning this year!

I hope you have a lovely weekend, and can’t wait to see everyone back on Monday! 😊
