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.

Fruit Points

The children in the school are being encouraged to bring a healthy snack to eat.  Each time do, they are given a point and the person who has the most points at the end of the month is given a piece of fruit courtesy of Morrisons.  We had a 3 way tie this month and winner was … Natalie McRae.  Well done to everyone who achieved lots of points!!

Healthy Eating at Tannochside

As a Gold Health Promoting School, we encourage the children to make healthy choices when it comes to food.  This year, Mrs Burke has organised a Fruit Point system.  For every piece of fresh fruit eaten by a pupil during the school day, they earn one point.  The person with the most points in each Bay at the end of the month wins some exotic fruit to enjoy.

We are very lucky to be supported by Morrisons supermarket in Bellshill with this initiative, who gift the fruit prizes every month.
