Hello Primary 1

I hope you all had a lovely long weekend!

This week your child has been set tasks for Tuesday and Wednesday night. To keep us all safe, we have decided that all completed work should be kept at home (until further notice). Please remember to send back the clear zippy wallet empty on Wednesday and return your reading book on Thursday.

Could you please encourage your child to practise their reading book each night. 📖

North Lanarkshire Maths Contest

This week we are taking part in Sumdog’s North Lanarkshire Maths Contest. It finishes on Thursday 19^th of November at 8pm. It would be great if you could encourage your child to play along as part of their homework this week. Remind them to take their time and think about the question before they press their answer. Points are based on accuracy. It will be great if all of the pupils in Primary 1 take part. Let’s see if we can get St Barbara’s on the leaderboard.
