Mrs. Denney just loves a good sing-along – so what better way to pay tribute to our retiring Depute Head that a good old Tannochside Shindig? Guess who got eaten by the Boa Constrictor?

Diamond Jubilee Celebrations
We all had a fabulous time at our Diamond Jubilee Party. Due to the rain we had it inside, but we still managed to have a ball!
The Sun has got it’s hat on…
We are all enjoying the lovely weather at the moment and many of the classes are working outside to make the most of it while it lasts.
The forecast says it’s due to last into next week. It would be a good idea for children:
1. To wear a sunhat or cap to school (no football brands).
2. To get some sunscreen applied before coming to school, and maybe bringing some with them to put on themselves later on.
3. To bring a water bottle to school, filled with fresh water.
Easter Bonnet Competition
Today was our annual Easter Bonnet Parade. All of the children were asked to create an Easter bonnet, crown or hat at home to wear to our service. Each class selected a winner who was awarded with the prize of a chocolate Easter egg.
All of the pupils who entered put in a lot of effort – every idea was different and unique and so much time and thought had gone into making each one special. Well done and thank you for making it so much fun!
Silver Award – Zumba Party
Many of our children have already achieved their Silver Award in the Going for Gold scheme. To celebrate this excellent achievement, all of the children who have earned their award were invited to a Zumba Party. Mrs Paterson led the children through an energetic but fun routine. Well done everyone for achieving this!
World Book Day
Thursday March 1st was World Book Day. Every pupil received a £1 gift voucher which they can use towards a book in most high-street book shops.
To celebrate this day, everyone was invited to dress up as their favourite book character. A winner for best costume was chosen from each stage – they received a book and bookmark as a prize. The staff also held a competition – Mr. Clark won for his Mr. Bump costume!
Thank you to everyone who worked together to make this such a memorable day. Special thanks to Mrs. Fleck who organised it!
World Book Day
World Book Day is on Thursday 1st March 2012.
To celebrate, we are having a “Dress as a Book character” competition. Pupils and staff can dress as a character from their favourite book to enter.
Check back soon to see some photographs of the different costumes.
Library Books
With the help of some parents we are trying to re-organise our library and locate the books we have on our system.
If you have any old School Library Books lying around your house could you please return them to the school-no questions asked!
There will be a box in the library for all books to put into at a time convenient to the class. Thank you for your assistance with this.
Bags2school
Thank you to everyone who recently donated old clothes and items back in November. We managed to raise £130 for school funds.
