Thanks to Michael and Nick from British Transport Police for visiting us today to share the importance of keeping safe around railways.
We learned if we need them we can call 999 in an emergency or 0800 405040 or text 61016.

What’s on this week?
This week it is our Financial Education week with all classes across the school focusing on all things money related. There are planned visits by HMRC who will deliver workshops in a number of classes during the week. Pr. 6 will also get involved in an exciting day long workshop called ‘Enterprise is the Business’ that will also include an invitation to parents to join them at 2.15pm and find out all about the learning that day. Classes will update the blog this week to share their learning. Being money savvy is an important life skill that starts from an early age and we hope that our annual whole school focus will support the children to budget well in the future.

In preparation for transition to high school P7 will be working with Tree of Knowledge for the next 6 weeks. This week we learned about the human brain and how we make impulse decisions. We can’t wait to find out more over the coming weeks.
Sportshall Athletics Final
Some of our P6 and 7 pupils went off to Ravenscraig on Friday for the NL finals of Sportshall Athletics.
It was without a doubt a fantastic day. Every pupil who went worked their socks off and should absolutely be proud of their efforts. Sadly we didn’t win, but came home with no regrets. Our team showed determination, grit, superb team work and fun. Mrs Drummond lost her voice she was cheering so much!
Be proud of yourselves boys and girls, you were amazing!
Fishy update!
Room 12 (formerly rm 15) had an exciting delivery today. This afternoon Paul the science guy delivered our hatchery for our new classmates! Paul will be visiting us weekly to see how well we’re looking after them. We can’t wait for their arrival on January 27th.
