P2/3 Winter Topic
As part of our Winter topic we have been looking at the weather and how to stay warm. We have had great fun designing winter woollies to keep us warm. Here is a selection of our finished work so far.
Co-op Local Fund
Our ‘Grow It, Cook It, Eat it @ Glenmanor!'( ID Ref: 0001696) application has been selected to receive an award from the Co-op Local Fund in our area. This means that we are guaranteed to receive some money when funds are distributed at the end of February 2016.
We asked for funding to buy a potting shed/outdoor changing area and a polytunnel for our school gardens.
How much our cause will receive is now up to how our members vote. To help our cause benefit as much as possible, could all parents and members of the community vote for us by visiting www.co-oplocalfund.co.uk from 16th November. Voting closes at 5pm on 11th December.
All members of The Co-operative Group will get one vote and be able to place this vote to support their favourite cause when voting opens on 16th November. It’s easy for non-members to join by visiting www.co-oplocalfund.co.uk
Thanks in advance!
P2 Ready Steady Cook!
The boys and girls in Primary 2 had a fabulous time in the learning kitchen creating their Ready Steady Cook competition entry.
Have a look at the children hard at work!
“Potato, Onion and Tomato Filo Parcels.”
Some children helped to prepare and cook the potatoes, onions, tomatoes and filo pastry while others created a fancy placemat to display the wonderful creation. Mrs Martin came along to judge our recipe and the boys and girls tasted it too!
P2 Healthy Lunch Posters
Primary 2 created great ‘Healthy Packed Lunch’ Posters for a Food Standards Competition. The class discussed what they think makes a healthy lunch and talked about the importance of having a balanced diet.
Fabulous Food Standards Posters
We created posters to promote a healthy diet and nutrition for a competition! Fingers crossed!
Lunch Menu for w/b 26 October 2015
Please spend a few minutes planning ahead with your child. The cashless system is now up and running and, until the online payments system begins, it is advisable to give your child enough money to put on their cashless card for the week ahead to save them queuing up every day. Please note that all pupils eneitled to a free meal no longer require a ticket, their cashless card holds this information.
Cashless Catering System Starts Tomorrow!
This leaflet was sent home today because all pupils were issued with a lunch card today. These are kept in school. Pupils need to add money to their cards before they can purchase breakfast, tuck or lunch. There is a machine to do this in the hall.
Parents will be able to add money online very soon. Details to follow.
Winter Snack 2 Go Form
