Easter Eggs

Thanks to everyone who came to our Easter Service this morning.

After the service some of the Parent Council members took on the role of the Easter Bunny.  Every year the Parent Council provide a sweet treat for the children at Easter time and this year with thanks to Tesco for helping, the children all got an easter egg.

 

Here are some of the pupils with their easter egg and some members of the parent council

A reminder that school closes at 2.30pm tomorrow. The nursery doors will also open at 2.30pm tomorrow to allow any parent who wishes to collect their child early.

World Book Day

There were a lot of strange characters in and around Tannochside Primary School today as we celebrated World Book Day.  Many of the children and staff were dressed up as book characters.  We had Funny Bones skeletons, Oompa Loompas and Charlie from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Horrid Henrys, Cruella Deville and some of her dalmations and many, many more characters.  We even spent some time trying to find Wally from Where’s Wally in each of the classes.

Every class chose a winner  who received a World Day Book.  An overall winner was chosen from each department and each of these children received a £5 book token to spend at the Book Fair next week.  The overall winners were:

Nursery a.m – Calvin

Nursery p.m – Dana

P1-3 – Brodie

P4/5 – Evan

P6/7 – Corey

We even had a staff competition but the Pupil Council couldn’t decide on an outright winner so Mrs Ferrie (Cruella Deville) and Mr Flannigan (Cat in the Hat) had to share the goodie box prize.

A huge thank you to everyone for making such an effort today.  Photos to follow later.

World Book Day

World Book Day will be celebrated on Thursday 6th March 2014.  Children and Staff are being encouraged to dress up as a book character.  There will be prizes for the best dressed from each class and stage, and for the best dressed staff member!  The children are being asked to bring £1 on the day too.

We are all looking forward to seeing everyone dressed up on the day and celebrating the joy of reading!

Considerate Car Parking

A number of visitors to our school require the use of the Disabled parking spaces at the bottom of the car park. We politely ask any drivers who do not hold a Blue Badge to use another area of the car park. This is particularly important at the end of the school day.

We also ask that those drivers who do hold a Blue Badge to display it prominently when parked in one of our marked bays.

Thank you for your consideration.

This November TCA are delighted to bring you the Christmas Lights Switch On along with a very special guest. The Christmas lights are being switched on across North Lanarkshire throughout November to bring festive cheer to the town centres during the Christmas shopping period.

This year Santa will be making a very special appearance and would love for you to help spread some festive cheer by joining him and his elves for a Christmas Sing-Along at each of the seven town centres across North Lanarkshire. The words to all of the festive songs will be displayed on a big screen so there’s no excuse not to join in!

He’s also bringing along his magic post box to let the children post their Christmas list. Make sure to include an address as Santa has promised to reply to each and every one!

Fire Drill

What an exciting day it was at Tannochside today. The fire alarm rang during the lunch break and all of the boys and girls, and adults too, assembled on the pitch to wait for the fire engines to arrive and let us back in to the building.

The children were very quick at getting in to their correct places on the pitch and followed our fire drill plan perfectly.  Thanks you to all of the nursery parents and family members who also helped with the drill.
