Christmas Gift Appeal December 2011

November 29, 2011 User deactivated

This year the Pupil Council are supporting Viewpark Parish church’s Christmas Gift Appeal. The gifts donated will be given to less privileged children in our local area and help them to have a happier Christmas.

If you would like to help out here is what you can do:

* Next time you are Christmas shopping buy an extra gift (this does not have to be an expensive gift!).

* Wrap up your gift.

* Put a label on your gift and please say whether it is for a boy or a girl and what age it is suitable for.

* Bring your gift to school and give it to your Pupil Council class representative.

Your gifts will be collected, taken to the church and distributed.

All gifts must be in by FRIDAY 9TH DECEMBER 2011.

Thank you for all your support in helping make it a happier Christmas for everyone! Merry Christmas!

Primary 2 have been learning all about packaging and recycling. We have been collecting all our rubbish at playtime and lunchtime. We had great fun in class looking at the packaging and sorting them into materials we can recycle and materials we can’t.

The N.D Road Safety Competition

November 15, 2011 User deactivated

All the pupils in P2/3 learned lots about road safety during a visit from N.D.

The pupils had the opportunity to look in and around 2 Heavy Goods Vehicles and participate in a poster competition.

They made up the slogan: Stand Back, I Mean That! They created a road safety poster using this slogan.

Two children in our bay won this competition and went home with a fantastic goodie bag. Well done!

The children in Primary 3 and 3/2 had a fun-filled Hallowe’en trying out different activities in the bays. They wrote instructions for and made Spooky Jelly with Mrs Kearney. In Mrs Simpson’s bay they enjoyed finding out all about spiders and Mrs Bradshaw’s class was going crazy about bats!
