Monday’s assembly was all about our new Strive to Thrive Policy. This will replace our Promoting Positive Behaviour Policy and will be emailed to all parents/carers this week.
Our fish were delivered to P5 and P5/6 this week and they have shown great responsibility looking after them. Our children are thoroughly enjoying the Clyde in the Classroom project.
The children took part in The Big Question on Friday in their classes, where they decided on their Lenten Charities and Fun Days. These will be included in the February Newsletter.
All classes will start preparing for our Financial Education days next week. This year children will be responsible for spending a budget in a way that benefits the community. They will take time this week to generate ideas, which will be put into practice the following week.
We hosted another successful Coffee Morning and Primary 6 wowed us with singing, dancing, a violin performance and a poem written and recited by one of our P6 girls. Thank you to all who came along.
First Friday Mass was held in the afternoon and the children heard about the Holy Guardian Angels. The singing was beautiful from all our children and we were delighted to see so many of our friends and family at the mass.
Primary 7 had their second transition visit to Taylor High School. There was an air of excitement when they returned and it is clear they have been enjoying the activities prepared by the staff of Taylor High School.
Next week is Children’s Mental Health Week. Our assembly on Monday will look at ways we can improve our mental health and the children will participate in discussions and activities throughout the week. We will also place a focus on Internet Safety, as 7th February is Internet Safety Day. This year’s theme is ‘Want to talk about it? Making space for conversations about life online’.
We have three Out of School Hours Learning Clubs this week: football, netball and The Carfin Choristers.
Tickets for the St. Valentine’s Disco will be on sale this week.
