3. Can you measure the temperature on the inside? = 4 oC

Excellent work too boys and girls and especially to Holly our Scientific Advisor!
Thank you, for bringing your answers and presenting all your important information to the class and asking them to ‘Hypothesize’ (make a really good educated guess) what the answers to the questions would be. Your classmates in P2 enjoyed it very much!
Great Work!

*** School Trip to Summerlee 5/3/18 ***
Important information for parents of P6/7
We have organised a trip to Summerlee museum for our P6/7 pupils so that they can take part in a workshop related to their WWII topic. As you are aware the school was closed for three days due to the weather and as a result we were unable to hand out permission slips.
All of the children in P6/7c, along with all P6 children from P6/7a and four P7 children from P6/7a are due to take part in the workshop tomorrow (5/3/18).
All of the children from P6/7b along with the other half of P6/7a are due to take part in the workshop on Friday (9/3/18). We are taking P6/7 to Summerlee on two separate dates as the workshop can accommodate a maximum of 33 children at a time.
As we haven’t had the chance to hand out permission slips before tomorrow, Mrs Dillon will send a text to parents first thing tomorow morning and we will use the general permission slips filled in at the start of the year. If you child is going on the trip tomorow it would be helpful if they could bring a packed lunch. The children are due to leave after interval and will return before 3 pm. If you do not wish you child to take part in the visit to Summerlee tomorow please contact the school tomorow morning.
Thanks,
Miss Gallagher

Feed the Birds!
Two very thoughtful girls out this morning making sure our wee birdy friends have something to eat.
So delighted that you have not forgotten the birds in this terribly cold weather girls, very well done, great work…
…Mrs Byrne nearly did forget, but fortunately Mr Byrne Remembered. We thought you might like to look at our pictures too.
The first one is birds flying down in the snow on Wednesday towards the path in our back garden, to get their food…
The next one is birdie lunch. Yum!
Holy Family Primary School Closure 2.3.18 Mrs Wilson
Good morning boys and girls !
What a strange week it has been and what a pity we have not been together to celebrate World Book Day 2018, First Friday Mass, our Fairtrade Coffee Morning and House Quiz.
It has been fantastic to see how you have been following the ideas posted on the website and twitter to keep progressing your learning although your teachers are not with you to teach you directly and I am very proud of your imagination and creativity.
The teachers and I have all been working really hard too as we still have access to our emails and glow. I have now transferred all of my desktop work onto glow one drive and hope that Miss Gallagher will be impressed by my ICT skills !
I have followed the advice on twitter and remembered to feed the wildlife in my garden too although I don’t think they liked the over ripe pears I gave them very much !
!
I am going to work on my fairtrade assembly for Monday today and start looking at our classes for next year as well as reviewing our school improvement plan. While I am doing that I am hoping that my daughter can practise her soup making skills !
This is what my street looked like last night after the gritters had been round so I am really glad NLC made the decision for us all to stay safe indoors and keep the roads clear for our emergency workers
.
Enjoy your last snow day everyone and I look forward to giving out lots of golden tokens on Monday for all the hard work you have done at home.Plesae look at the Fairtrade website if you can and make a poster using the Fairtrade logo to help spread the message.
Here’s hoping the school doesn’t look like this by Monday morning !
