We are looking for your help. This week and next week we will be doing some junk modelling. We are going to create our very own castles. The cildren love to cut out the cardbord and stick it back together. As a result we are short on resources to use. Could we ask for some cardboard boxes, all shapes and sizes or old recycling pieces that you could donate to help us create castles.

This afternoon we were learning about proper nouns. In the pictures below you will be able to see the children looking at the difference between common nouns and proper nouns. In groups we then created silly stories which had proper nouns in them.
This afternoon the children were introduced to nouns. We had super fun discovering what a noun is. The children were then able to go on a noun hunt around the school. We were even able to go outside into the playground to find some nouns. Have a look at a few photos which show all the fun we had.
We hope you have had a lovely October Break, and a relaxing time spent with family and friends. We are looking forward to seeing the children’s smiling faces and hearing about their adventures.
Please see homework and weekly notes below.

We are looking forward to another term of learning with your children.
Next week we will be celebrating numeracy and maths throughout the school. As part of our learning, we will be visiting the Co-op on Thursday 3rd October from 11:00-11:30. The school are kindly asking for each child to bring in £1 to spend whilst we are there. P2E and P2S will be encouraged to purchase anything they wish from the fruit and vegetable section inside. To help us cross the road safely and with help inside the Co-op, we would love for 2 parent helpers for each class (4 in total) to join us on our short trip. If you are able to help us please let me know as soon as possible. We will be aiming to leave the school at 10:55.
Thank you for all your help and continued support,
Field days this week are: Monday and Thursday, weather permitting.
If possible, we are looking for some loose parts and junk for our freeflow play. We would appreciate if you could save and send in items which could be used in our different areas. Ideally, tubes (kitchen roll only), small boxes, wallpaper, material, cotton wool, little pebbles or stones, corks, shells, lids, twigs etc: items which encourage the children to be creative and use their imagination in a variety of ways. Due to allergies, please do not send in any tubs from food that contains nuts, seeds and pulses, milk or eggs.
This week the children will be given an opportunity to join the eco-committee. It would be appreciated if you could discuss this role with your child. If they are interested, together you can fill in an application form which will have been sent home.
Sainsbury’s superhero competition entries should be returned to your child’s class teacher by Monday 23rd September.

Our first two days in Primary two have been fantastic. The children are settling into Primary 2 and beginning to become familiar with our routines.
I am loving getting to know you all, and cannot wait for all the fun learning experiences we are going to share throughout the year.
We will issue more information on homework and routines soon, but we wanted to let you know that our PE days are Thursdays and Fridays. It would be much appreciated if you could ensure PE kits are sent into school by next Thursday. If your child has earrings, could you please ensure that they have been taped over on PE days.
