Thanks to all who came to our Open Day today.\u00a0 There was a great atmosphere in the school and the comments from our visitors were very positive with even some Parents wishing they could come back to school themselves!\u00a0 Some of the highlights of the day were the Choir’s beautiful performance, the Speech and Drama recitations, the P1 Prayer Service with Fr Stephen, French in P7, maths in P5 and P3, P1 & 2 topic work, P4 literacy and P6 writing.\u00a0 I am very proud of the hard work and dedication of our staff and pupils and we were delighted to share that with you today.<\/p>\n

I was also delighted to share some good news with our P5-7 classes today.\u00a0 P5 & P6 have been invited to participate in a really exciting science work shop at Strathclyde University and P7 have been invited to be part of the audience for Comic Relief Does Glee at the BBC studios in Glasgow.\u00a0 These are great opportunities for our children and certainly something to look forward to!<\/p>\n

We are going to be very busy over the next few weeks.\u00a0 Tomorrow is Pyjama Day for Children in Need and next week we have a meeting for our P7 parents on Thursday at 6pm.\u00a0 In addition our P5 pupils are looking forward to visiting the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh next Friday.<\/p>\n

Saturday 30th November is the Christmas Fayre – we really appreciate all the donations already received and are hopeful for many more next week.\u00a0 The day will be lots of fun with craft stalls, Santa, home baking and a photographer will be available for anyone who would like to have professional family photographs taken.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday 3rd December we are starting the first part of our Food for Thought Project.\u00a0 We will be working with John Hancox of Scottish Fruit Trees to plant our school orchard.\u00a0 We have 40 fruit trees ordered and a range of fruit bushes.\u00a0 We will all be busy helping to plant the trees and would be very grateful for any offers of help from parents or grandparents on the day.\u00a0 We also need to borrow some spades or forks if anyone can offer these.\u00a0 It will be great to see the trees blossom in spring and hopefully yield a good harvest in Autumn!<\/p>\n

The preparations are now well underway for the Christmas Show – Children Around The World.\u00a0 We are very grateful to the Parents who are helping to get the costumes made.\u00a0 Anyone else who can help please contact the school.\u00a0 Tickets are now on sale and can be purchased from the school office for either Wednesday 11th December at 1.30pm or Thursday 12th December at 7pm.\u00a0 \u00a34 for adults and \u00a32 for children.\u00a0 Tickets are selling fast!<\/p>\n
