At Golden Time today we had a visit from some Ghastly Ghouls who resembled some of our class? We also enjoyed some sweet treats from Mrs. Fullerton including some nice new fangs/teeth. Happy Halloween everyone from P5a.

In P5a we use I.C.T. to enhance our learning.

In maths we have been learning about different types of patterns, these include – number, letter and colour. We found this great fun and even managed to design some of our own. We then decided to use I.C.T. to enhance our learning and created a variety of patterns – some number, some colour using both laptops and ipads. Can you identify which pattern we are using?

Staff Update

June 22, 2012 User deactivated

It is with mixed emotions that we announce some changes to the staffing at Tannochside Primary from August 2012.

Mrs. Denney, our current Depute Head Teacher will be taking early retirement after a teaching career spanning over 30 years. We wish her all the best for a long and happy retirement.

Mrs. Henderson, a class teacher currently filling a Support for Learning role, will also take early retirement after a long career too. Our best wishes also go with her for a long and healthy future.

We are also sad to announce that Mrs. Paterson will be moving on as she has been appointed Head Teacher at Mossend Primary School in Bellshill. We know that she will make a wonderful Head Teacher!

Mr. Clark has been successful at interview to fill one of the Depute Head vacancies and Mrs. Shirley Queen from Allanton Primary, the other DHT vacancy.

Also, we are sad to announce that Miss Weir, Miss Ogston and Miss Baillie from the Nursery will also be leaving us at the summer.

Good wishes also go to Miss Bhopal who will be leaving Tannochside after 8 years to move to London.

Mrs Kearney has successfully secured a permanent teaching position with us – we are delighted that she will now remain at Tannochside. We are also delighted to announce that Miss Grenfell will be returning to Tannochside after securing a permanent post too.

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?
