Some of the senior choir did our school proud yesterday when they sang Christmas carols in Braehead Shopping Centre. They sang their hearts out! Thanks to parents and family members for coming along to support us.
Excellent singing from the children at our Service of Remembrance yesterday.
“At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will Remember Them.”
Primary 5/6, 6/7 and 7 shared with us the importance of Remembrance Day at our whole school service this morning. Well done to the confident readers who read facts and poems clearly and sang songs enthusiastically and to all children for showing respect during the minutes silence. Thanks also to the Reverend Mark McKeown for joining us and sharing with us some words about Sacrifice.
We worked on the mediums of shape and colour to make this collaborative poppy art display.
We have been learning about the history and importance of Remembrance Day. We created personal message poppies to show respect for those who gave their lives in the wars of the past and wrote acrostic poems. We learned about one soldier in particular and his war story.
Parents, carers and friends of Glenmanor,
We are looking for photos of relatives who you would like to be remembered for their contributions to the wars of the past in our memorial service this year. If you have any photos of these friends or relatives, please ask your child to pass them to Mrs MacGregor or simply drop the photo into the school office with your name and number attached so we can take a copy and return the original to you. Their pictures and any facts about them will be included in a Powerpoint presentation during our Remembrance Day assembly.
Children who brought pictures and information of a relative last year, don’t need to bring it in again as a copy has been retained. Thanks in advance, Mrs MacGregor.
