On Friday Kirkshaws Primary School was transformed into multi-colour by the JRSO team when everybody wore bright and reflective clothing. At assembly our Junior Road Safety Officers highlighted the need to ‘Be Bright and Be Seen’ during the dark mornings and evenings. Certificates and a prize were given to the brightest child in each class as well as the brightest staff members. Well done to everyone who dressed up and brightened everyone’s day.
Kirkshaws Junior Road Safety Officers are holding a ‘Be Bright Day’ on Friday the 20th of January. This will be used to heighten the awareness of wearing bright clothing during the dark evening and mornings so that it is easier to be seen by motorists. Everyone is encouraged to dress as brightly as possible. There will be prizes for the brightest dressed child – and teacher! Check back next week for some photographs of the day.

Our yearly Christmas lunch had been planned for last Thursday the 8th of December, but due to adverse weather conditions the school was closed and lunch was postponed until Friday. The children enjoyed a choice of steak pie or turkey with all the trimmings as well as a selection of desserts. Mr Clark supplied a chocolate treat and table settings. Many thanks to the parent helpers who assisted in giving out the dinners. Here are some photographs of the children enjoying their special meal.
Today pupils, from Nursery to P7, performed their Christmas Assembly to a sell-out crowd. We were joined today by some special guests from St James’ Court who stayed on to enjoy tea, coffee and christmas pies. Thursday and Friday’s performances are also sold out.
Here are a few photographs from this morning’s performance.
