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.
Kirkshaws Christmas parties kick off today with P3/4, P5/4 and P5 having their party this afternoon- Wednesday the 14th.
The rest of the parties are as follows:
If you wish to take your child home to get changed on the day of their party, you may collect them from the appropriate playground at 12pm.
So get your ‘glad rags’ on and get ready to party!!
Primary 1 to 7 of Kirkshaws Primary went to Motherwell Civic Theatre yesterday morning to see the pantomime ‘Beauty and the Beast’. It was a fantastic show with lots of audience participation. French Frankie managed to make us all laugh, but the water fight was definitely the favourite with all the children. Many thanks to Mrs Peat and Mrs Dunn for making up the snack bags for every pupil who went on the trip. Fingers crossed we can make it along to next years show.
Today’s planned primary 6 visit to the Scottish Parliament has been cancelled due to the severe weather warnings. It will be rearranged for a another day.
A ‘Home Learning Winter Pack’ has been sent home to every child. A copy of this has now been put into the ‘Learning and Teaching’ page of the website. Click here for a direct link.
Kirkshaws Primary School and Nursery Class will be close today due to dangerous weather conditions. Please check the North Lanarkshire council website here for updates.
Winds will increase during the morning with severe gales developing and storm force winds forecast to arrive in North Lanarkshire in the afternoon.
We are currently assessing the forecast and its likely impact, particularly for schools. Our schools will open as normal tomorrow morning. We will assess the weather warnings first thing in the morning for updates. Should the red warning remain in place it is extremely likely that we will close our schools early at around lunchtime.
Please keep up to date by clicking here to check the North Lanarkshire Website.
In the event of the school being closed due to adverse weather conditions, your child has been given a ‘Winter Learning Pack’. It contains a series of shared learning activities that can be completed at home, a list of appropriate educational websites where they can consolidate learning and a jotter where written tasks can be completed. A copy of these will soon be uploaded onto the school website. Here’s hoping we will not need to use them.
Following North Lanarkshire guidance, during the snowy and icy weather a path shall be cleared daily towards the main entrance to the school. If other entrances appear hazardous, please use the main entrance to drop off your children. Staff will then direct children to their classes. Please ensure that children are not dropped off at school or in the playground earlier that 8.50am as supervision cannot be guaranteed before that time unless they are attending breakfast club. Your cooperation is appreciated.
