Lost Property- Christmas 2012

lost-propertyThere are many un-named items in lost property. Most of them have been there for at least the past term. These items will be available in the school reception area from 2:30-3pm Mon 17th Dec – Thu 20th Dec. Following this all unclaimed items will be put to the Blysthwood box.

Items include numerous gym shoes, hats, gloves, scarves, school jumpers, school polos, drinks bottles, lunch boxes as well as those listed previously on the website.

Remember the best way to avoid lost property is to put your childs name on all items that come to school with them.

Have a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year.

Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree at the P2 Party!

Today, we had a super end to our week! We had our P2 Christmas Party! It was so much fun. We played all different games in the hall and it was nice to be all together. We were very good at playing musical statues and we loved playing pass-the-parcel. After we had been tired out by Christmas disco dancing, we had some scrummy food that we all brought in to share and we had festive activities in the classroom. I think we will all sleep well tonight, including the teachers!

Thank you to all the parents/carers who donated food for our party. All the food was delicious and we had a great time having a christmas classroom picnic!

A Good Afternoon with A Guide Dog!

Wow! Yes, P2S had another visitor! Yesterday we were lucky enough to have a visit from Woody! Woody is a retired guide dog and he came in with his owners to talk about how the guide dogs services can help people in need in our local community. We found the visit very interesting and we thought Woody was lovely!

We would like to say a big thank you to Carol and Woody for our lovely afternoon!

There has been some criminal activity in P2S…

Wow! We are having such a fun and busy week! Today we were excited to meet the police. They came to talk about our topic, ‘Our Needs and Help in the Community’ and to answer some of our questions.

We are able to have a look inside the police car, try on handcuffs and have a look at batons and hats. We learnt about what the police  do to look after us in our community and how we can look after ourselves by staying safe. They even pretended to arrest Miss Shimmield!

A big thank you to the police officers who came to visit, we loved it!

Ambulance Arrival!

We had such an interesting day today. Paramedics and people from the ambulance service came to visit our classroom today to help us answer some questions about how the ambulance service helps people in our community. We got to look and talk about all different things. We got to go inside the ambulance and hear the siren! We could check how much oxygen was in our blood and listen to our heartbeats. We even got a chance to dress up like a paramedic wearing the special clothing and safety equipment. Miss Shimmield tried a special piece of equipment that works like an inflatable stretcher that helps to lift people up so the paramedics don’t hurt their back

We learnt lots and lots more! And we would like to say a huge thank you to Kenny, Milne, Hazel and Fiona who came to visit us today.
