Boys & Girls in Primary 1 really enjoyed our recent Bookbug Workshop, which took place during Book Week Scotland. They had fun listening to stories from the pack and reading together with a parent or monitor from Primary 7. Bookbug packs then went home to share. I hope you enjoy your books Primary 1!

Primary 2 Christmas Party
Today was the Room 6 and Room 3 Christmas Party and all the children donned their best outfits to take part in some traditional Scottish dancing as well as some classic party tunes, like the Superman and Cha Cha Slide. Everyone had a fantastic time playing party games and enjoying some well earned snacks.
Thank you to Miss McNeill for organising the music, we loved it!

Room 6 Christmas Enterprise
Room 6 had great Enterprise success last week with their Rice Krispie Reindeer treats, made and sold at the Christmas Fayre. The children all had the chance to make the reindeer’s eyes, nose and antlers. The children also came up with the brilliant idea to utilise what would have been waste. All the offcuts from the reindeers were made up into little bags of reindeer rubble, labelled and put up for sale. What an enterprising bunch we have! We are now waiting to see how much money we made and what the profit will be.

French Advent Calendar
Here is a different kind of advent calendar to try from Mrs Shaw.
It’s a good way of learning some more french and enjoy the different activities.

Room 13 Visit Tesco
Room 13 thoroughly enjoyed their visit to Bellshill Tesco this week. They visited lots of different sections of the store and they participated in a food tasting session linked to our class topic ‘Food Around the World’.
Room 6 Update!
Room 6 have had a very busy week! We have been learning all about money in Maths, recognising the different coins and being able to find the coins to pay for different amounts. We worked in pairs and small groups to help each other.
In IDL we are continuing to build our rainforest. We are adding animals and plants to each of the 4 layers. This week we labelled the layers and finished our atlas work on where rainforest are in the world. We used notes that we wrote to make our own factfiles, building interesting sentences and adding as many features of non fiction text as we could. The results are impressive!
The week will end with the school Talent Show, Christmas Fayre and Enterprise phew!
A reminder that all homework for the week should be handed in on Friday.
Pantomime Lunch Arrangements
Our trip to the pantomime is on Friday 27th November. We will be leaving school around 12noon and so will need to have an early lunch.
To make things as easy as possible pupils should order their lunch using the attached form – Panto Lunch Form.
Blue Band/ Snack-to-go lunches should also be ordered using the Snack-to-go form.
All other pupils who do not wish to order a school lunch should bring a packed lunch to school. No crossing patrol is available at this time.
Many Thanks
Tesco Visit
Room 12 really enjoyed their trip to our local Tesco store yesterday. The boys & girls got lots of hands on experience in the different departments as you can see from the photos below.
