We had a great visit today from Nicky at Scottish SPCA who taught us about the importance of looking after animals. We learned about some interesting cases the SPCA have been involved with and what to do if we think an animal is not being looked after properly.
Well done to this enthusiastic pupil (on the right) who spent his own time researching and making a fantastic fact file about St. Andrew.
Primary 1 and 2 pupils were once again recognised by their teachers for excellent effort and behaviour this week in class. Well done also to Room 3 for winning the Best Line Award and to Room 2 for being the Best Class . We also recognised the success of dancers and footballers. Well done everyone! We are a talented bunch at St. Augustine’s.
Mr Quinn helping the pupils of Room 10 put the finishing touches to their reindeer rock, ready for sale at Saturday’s Christmas Fair.
Our Christmas Fair is fast approaching and the PTA have a request. They are looking for some helpers to help set up the hall on Friday afternoon, to help man some stalls and help clear up after the fair.
If people can spare time to help prepare on Saturday ( 9-11am to set up, 11-1pm to help on a stall, or 1 – 2pm to clear up) that would be great. Even if someone can help for half an hour on a stall, to allow another helper to either take their child to see Santa or get to buy some gifts, it would be so appreciated.
Please contact the school or a member of the PTA if able to assist.
Tickets will go on sale tomorrow for our Christmas Show. Tickets are available for Wed. 12th Dec. 6.00pm and Thurs. 13th Dec. 1.00pm. In the first instance there will be 2 tickets available for each child. Price £4.00. A further release of tickets will take place later next week for those families wishing to buy more tickets.
These Primary 3 pupils were delighted to share their achievements at Gymnastics . They were loaded down with medals. Well done girls!
Very well done to these pupils on the special recognition they have received from their teachers at our end of month assembly. The pupils were rewarded for excellent work in Literacy, in Maths or in Art. Their work will be displayed in the corridors in school. Keep up the great work!
Our annual Christmas Fair will take place on Saturday 1st Dec. 11.00am – 1.00pm. Donations of toys, tombola or bottles would be greatly appreciated. The countdown begins!!!
