Well done to a proud girl for winning 2 medals for her dancing skills.
May I also take this opportunity to thank all the parents and carers for their continued support throughout the year. It has been a pleasure to teach all your children and I wish them all luck when they go into Primary 3.
Have a very happy holiday and I will see you all again in August.
A reminder that the school show ‘Rootin’ Tootin’ Rodeo’ will be this Tuesday and Wednesday evening (20th and 21st June). It is important we have as many children to perform on BOTH evenings so I would appreciate it if you could arrange to bring your child to school BOTH evenings at 6.30pm, ready for a 7pm start. They should come to the classroom where they will get changed into their costume and wait until it is time to perform.
If you are not watching the show that evening, you may collect your child around 8.20pm approximately at the classroom door. For organisation purposes, the children will be in Mrs. Mahr’s class (Room 8) where they can be collected there. Parents watching the show will come to Room 8 at the end of the performance.
I trust you will support your child and the school in this way and hope you enjoy the show!
Today we went out to the nature garden to release our butterflies into the wild.
REMINDER
Could anyone who has not yet sent in their costume in for the school show please bring it in for Monday 19th June (see ‘School Show’ blog for details of what to bring). Thank you.
Yesterday Miss Travers helped us to put the caterpillar cocoons into their net so that when they come out they will not fly away. We will look after them for a few days and then let them go. Watch this space for the day of the big release!
