Reminder: Burns Competition Friday 5th February 2016

3 Comments

A reminder that each class have been given a Scots poem to learn at home as part of our annual Burns celebrations at Glenmanor Primary.

All children will have the opportunity to recite their poem from memory within their own class and some children will be selected as finalists to perform at a whole-school Burns assembly. There will be a 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize for each class and these children will be awarded with official Robert Burns Federation certificates.

Children should learn their poem off by heart and add suitable expression and actions. Some of the poems are performed by people online on sites such as YouTube and this may assist your child in learning their poem.

The poems are as follows:

P1a/P1b – My Wee Rid Motor, P2/P2/3 – Nessie, P3 – The Sair Finger, P4 – Fireworks aff the Castle, P4/5/P5 – A Chuckie in yer Shoe, P6/P6/7 – Such a Parcel of Rogues in a Nation, P7 – Lament to the Toothache.

If you need another copy of the poem, please ask Miss O’Neill.

P2 Won Class of the Week!

3 Comments

P2 won class of the week this week! This week the focus was good manners. Our class managed to walk respectfully in the corridors, hold the doors for other people, say please and thank you, listen well to the teacher and say good morning and good afternoon. The class received 28 Respect and Collect tokens.

We played lots of games in our class during our extra playtime and we had lots of fun! We hope we win next week too!
