Pupil Leadership
Thank you to all the children who have put themselves forward for a leadership role within the school. Pupils who wish to be part of the Eco, Health, Road Safety Committees and School Council, will have an opportunity to speak to their class during this week and next, with each class voting.
House Captains and Vice Captains (P4 – P7) should prepare a short speech to deliver at Assembly telling us why they think they should have a Pupil Leadership role within the school. All pupils will be able to place their votes at the end of assembly.
Good Luck and may the best candidates win.

Assembly – Monday 21st September
Today in Assembly we were learning all about Recycling, to keep our school clean and tidy and to take care of the Environment.
We are looking to see which children are recycling properly at playtime and lunchtime.
We have also been learning French in Assemblies and this week we were focusing on;
Comment tu t’appelles? (What is your name?)
Je m’appelle…(My name is..)
Et toi (and you).
and Mrs Murie is delighted to hear so many children speaking to her in French in and around the school.
