Lost Property- Christmas 2012

There 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 17^th Dec – Thu 20^th 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.
Sharon McArthur (Parent Council)

Pop all your Christmas cards into the Post box at the bottom of the middle stairs. Please remember to put names and class on the envelopes.

Pr 5 are the sorting and delivery crew on Thursday!

Pr 5 started the “Party Season” with a fantastic afternoon of Ceilidh dancing, traditional party games and delicious food. Everyone looked very glamorous and we all had a super time!

Thank you to Mrs Mcarthur for our dance coaching and to parents for their kind donations of party food – leftovers to keep us going for a few days! Now that sounds seasonal…..
