Last week started with an in-set day on Monday and the focus of this was numeracy, led by Miss Lewis.  P4 had a fabulous trip to Edinburgh Zoo on Wednesday, courtesy of Wiseman Dairies.  They had a fantastic time and several members of the public commented on how well they behaved throughout the day – well done, boys and girls.  Many thanks to the parents helpers who came along to assist Mrs Donnelly on the day.  Friday was our Day of Dance and our children danced their socks off!  We will publish the total raised in sponsor money once it has all been collated.  A huge thank you must go to Miss O’Donnell for coordinating the whole event; to all staff for their hard work, preparation and participation on the day; to our fabulous parent helpers who served teas and coffees throughout the day; and last but not least, to our fabulous dancers, our pupils!

Looking to our week ahead, we have John Wilson in on Wednesday to take nursery photographs, and they will also take any family photographs for nursery children too.

Our children will be practising hard for our upcoming Nativity and Carol Concert.  Our choir will also be working hard to prepare for the Regent Shopping Centre School Choir Competition too.  We have made it into the top ten and voting opens this week, so please spread the word and help us win again this year!
