It was time for Mrs Hunter’s monthly Tea Party today! The children who had worked extremely hard and all those who received an invitation in their Birthday card came along to join the fun!
They all had a great time. One child exclaimed “This is the best tea party ever!”
As we are due to experience some adverse weather over the next couple of days I thought it would be appropriate to reiterate some advice distributed in November. You can keep up to date on the Council’s Facebook page “nlcwinter” and we will be keeping you up to date on our own Twitter page WhiteleesPS and website www.whitelees.n-lanark.sch.uk. During periods of prolonged bad weather the North Lanarkshire website www.northlanarkshire.gov.uk will be updated daily at 7.00am
The school will only be closed in exceptional circumstances taking into account pupil safety, in which case you will find the details on our Twitter page, our website or the North Lanarkshire website. If the decision is made to close the school after the start of the school day our office staff will contact all parents via email or text. It is therefore vital that the school iskept updated with any change of emergency contact numbers over the Winter season and that you are registered for our new Groupcall Xpressions system.
If pathways in the school are particularly icy or snow covered one main pathway through the school will be cleared/gritted. Please ensure children are dressed appropriately for the weather as they will be outside for break and lunch unless the weather is particularly bad or the playground is icy or exceptionally snow covered. Children will only be admitted to the school building before 9.00am if there are sufficient staff in the building to supervise them.
Today Fred the Elf set our pupils a challenge! He sent them on an Elf Hunt around Whitelees!! Those pesky elves were hiding everywhere, they were on the Polar Express, in the fruit bowl and hiding in classrooms!!!
Everyone had fun searching out the elves and they all did a great job but there was one clear winner who managed to locate ALL 12 elves!!!
Don’t forget Christmas Jumper day tomorrow! Children can come in a Christmas jumper, something Christmassy or their own clothes! There will be no charge for this.
School finishes at 2.30pm on Friday 23rd December for the Christmas break.
We hope you all have a fun filled Christmas and a Happy New Year.
