A huge well done to P7C who were the Class Daily Winners for the Renfrewshire Sumdog Contest on Monday! They managed to earn 192 points. Congratulations!
The contest finishes at 8pm so we’ll have one final push to see if we can get another daily winner.
As it is World Book Day on Thursday 5th March, there will be a change to the lunch menu and the theme is ‘Alive in Wonderland’s Mad Hatters Tea Party’. Please check your child knows what they would like to order on this day.
Thank you to all of the parents/carers who have volunteered to come in to talk to the pupils about their job and their skills. I am still trying to contact a few people to book their visit for the week (30th March to 2nd April). Apologies if I have not managed to speak to you yet but I will continue to leaves messages and/or email.
Thank you,
Miss McDowall, Principal Teacher

Spelling Information Evening – 18th Feb 2020
Thank you,
Miss McDowall, Principal Teacher
Every year, on the 22nd of February, the Girl Guides and Scouts celebrate World Thinking Day. Bishopton Primary School are once again delighted to support this. Any pupil who is a member of one of these organisations is welcome to wear their appropriate uniform on Friday 21st February.
A reminder about our Spelling Information Evening 6.30-7.30pm on Tuesday 18th February.
As you know, we changed our spelling programme at the start of the session and are now well underway with positive results. We would like to invite you to an information evening to further share how the programme works and what the children are experiencing in class. This will be a good opportunity for you to find out how to reinforce the strategies used in school at home.
If you are able to make the information evening, please complete the slip in your child’s bag (oldest child only).
Kind regards,
Karen McDowall, Principal Teacher
