More Pics of our Readathon
Readathon
Our Pyjama themed Readathon was a great success today with the hall busy all day with children settling down to read for enjoyment. We also had a Crazy Hair Day for our Lenten Charity as part of our planned Thrilling Thursdays so the school was a strage place today! A great day was had by all, we hope the Read to Succeed message has got across to everyone this week.
Literacy Assembly
Our Literacy Assembly for the pupils and parents of Pr.1 – 3 will take place on Friday 3rd March at 11.15am. Children are asked to dress up as a character from fiction for this event. Children can dress up across the school tomorrow to celebrate our Literacy Week.
School Blog
Our school blog will continue to update in regard of school news and what is up and coming in school. However we are unable , at the moment, to upload photographs that fully reflect the life of our school. When this issue has been resolved we will provide a gallery of pictures reflecting our Literacy Week and School Celebrations for our Golden Jubilee.
