It was time for tea today at Whitelees when Mrs Hunter hosted her monthly Tea Party for children who are working extremely hard and behaving well! It looks like everyone had a great time and enjoyed lots of goodies!
We had our annual Elf Hunt today! The children had great fun looking for all our hidden elves. It was a very close competition but P2 just pipped P4/5 to the post! Well done P2 who found all 12 elves and our bonus elf Mrs Henderson!
Our knitting After School Club made fidget blankets and presented them to Mrs Boland from Abronhill Parish Church at our Christmas Service today to be distributed in the community.
Congratulations to our weekly Class Dojo winners and Responsible Citizens!
We had quite a few “It’s Good To Be Me” pupils this week, clearly our children don’t just save their best for school. Holly, Hope and Thomas all won a trophy and a belt at Tae-Kwon-Do, Sophie won a trophy for doing well at gymnastics, Kerr won a red stripe at Tae-Kwon-Do and sisters, Freya, Maddison and Elli-Mae all won trophies at their dancing presentation. Well done to all our achievers!
Happy Birthday to all our pupils who had a Birthday in the last week!
Primary 4/5 won our Enterprise Award this year for all their hard work and money raised at the Christmas Fayre. Well done P4/5!
Fred the Elf left a special present for all our children. Our Christmas tree was covered in candy canes for the children. Fred said they could take them home and have them once their rooms are tidied! Lots of tidy rooms over thee weekend Mum’s and Dad’s!
We are delighted to announce that we raised an amazing total of £4168.61 from our Christmas Fayre and personalised Christmas cards. This is a phenomenal amount and we would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported our Christmas Fayre and to our Parent Council who worked tirelessly to make it an occasion to remember! As promised we will be making a donation of £350.00 to Children In Need.
Just a reminder that it’s our whole school pantomime tomorrow.
Children should wear school uniform and can “Christmas up” with a Santa hat or something similar. They will have break at the normal time and an early lunch (a full menu will be provided). They can bring a snack and a drink for the pantomime (in a disposable bag if possible).
The buses are expected to arrive back at the school at approximately 4.30pm. Please be reminded to refrain from parking at the layby outside the school to enable the buses to park on their return for the children to disembark safely. Children will be dismissed directly from their bus. Please refer to the letter issued last week with details of which bus your child’s class will be on.
As always you co-operation is greatly appreciated.
We are looking for ward to a fun filled afternoon and a great start to our Christmas festivities!
