Primary 1 – Christmas Experience

On the morning of Thursday 7th December, our Primary 1 pupils have been invited to take part in an annual festive event being held within Moodiesburn Church and organised by Chryston Parish Church.

Children will listen to Christmas stories, sing Christmas songs and take part in festive craft activities.

Consent to take part in this event is covered by the local visits form signed earlier this year.

I am sure the children will enjoy this lovely festive experience.

Infant Nativity

This year, the children in Primaries 1 to 3 will be performing “Born in a Barn” as our Nativity Performance.  The dates of the Nativity are as follows:-

Tuesday 12th December                         7 p.m.

Wednesday 13th December                   1.30pm

If your child is in Primary 1 to 3 and is the eldest in the family he/she will initially be allocated 2 tickets.

On Monday 4th December the eldest child in each family will be given 2 tickets for the evening performance, unless you have stated your preference for the afternoon performance.  If the evening performance does not suit you may return them to the school to be exchanged for day performance no later than Wednesday 6th December.  If your child is absent they will be given 2 tickets on their return.  On Thursday 7th December, the remainder of the tickets will be available on a first come first served basis from the school office from 9.30am.

The money for the tickets will be collected at the door on the evening of the performance.  Tickets are priced at £3.00 each and entry will be by ticket only so please keep them safe as duplicates cannot be issued.  For Health and Safety reasons we must insist that every person in the hall has a ticket.  Please see separate letter regarding prams and buggies.

The Parent Council will be providing tea and coffee during both performances.

As usual the children and staff are working hard for this concert and we are confident that you will have a very enjoyable evening.

Primary 1a have been using the outdoors as part of their learning this week.  We have been looking for signs of Autumn, collecting leaves and using them to make leaf collages of animals.  We have also been taking pictures Autumn trees and adding our own Autumn leaves to them using the app Doodle Buddy.

We have also been learning about 3d shapes, sorting them and using them to make our own towers and buildings.

Primary 1a have been busy this week!  They have been learning how to capture images using the I-pads then change the image using an app called Doodle Buddy.

They have also enjoyed learning about 2d Shapes and using them to create pictures.

They have created spooky skeleton pictures after hearing the story Funny Bones!  Their skeletons were excellent and they and lots of fun!
