The teachers of the top floor are wishing everyone a Happy Halloween. They are also making sure the children keep to their Literacy targets. Don’t mess with the Punctuation Police!

MacMillan Coffee Morning 28/09/18
Miss Devoy and Room 13 worked very hard last week to organise a fantastic MacMillan Coffee Morning within the school. It came with the usual array of entertainment and let’s not forget the ‘The Great St Augustine’s Bake Off’. The children in Room 13 worked hard to prepare a song showcasing their admiration for the nurses and the fighters and survivors. We had some fantastic entries from children throughout the school for our Bake Off, from Unicorns and Books to Tree-house Tea Parties and Cheeseburgers & Chips. Thank you to all who attended and donated, we raised an amazing £552.71!

Maths Week Scotland in Room 15
Room 15 were learning about money during Maths Week. The children were able to shop within a budget and compare prices to get the best deal. They also gave it their best efforts when completing Miss Giblin’s daily maths challenge! We also had fun taking part in the Sumdog contest.
