The Week Ahead~ 26 Feb – 2 Mar
Week 2 menu this week. Please remember to discuss menu options daily with your child. We still find some children are choosing food they don’t like.
With World Book Day being on Thursday, we will be having a huge focus on reading all week. Homework for most classes will be a ‘catch-up’ week, plus the extra reading challenges issued last week. The exception to this is Primary 1, who continue with their weekly homework grids. For all other classes, new homework grids will be coming the following week. |

We have a team heading to Coatbridge Library for the first round of the Primary Reading Quiz…good day for it! Whatever the outcome, I am so proud of these young people, who have given up their free-time over recent weeks to prepare for this event. Thank you! Our Fundraisers will be holding another Coffee Morning at 9.30am. Feel free to pop in during the morning for a cuppa and a sweet treat.
