First Week Back – Primary 2

Good Morning everyone, we hope you all had a relaxing break.

For spelling this week, the children will be revising their magic e sounds and words. There is no formal spelling homework.

The children have taken home a library book today to read with an adult at home. New reading books will be issued next week when running records have taken place.

There is no formal maths homework this week.

A gentle reminder to return all PE kits back to school.

In the next few weeks, we will be starting our Car Engineering Project. We are in need of any shoeboxes you have at home (preferably average size boxes) and any old cd discs you may have. These will help with the construction of our cars.

Thanks as always for your continued support.

The Primary 2 Team.

Last week of term

Hello everyone,

As it is the last week of term there will be no formal homework. Our spelling rule is magic e with long vowel e and will be completed in class.

A reminder that school nativity performances are this week and we ask that if your child has not already brought in their costume, that they do so tomorrow.

Our P2 Christmas party is on Thursday afternoon. Your child should come to school in their uniform with their party clothes in a bag with their name on it to later change into.

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask.

Many thanks,

P2 teachers.

Nativity Outfits

We are very excited that our Nativity performances are next week and we cannot wait to hear the Primary 2 and Primary 3 choirs.

We are aware that there has been previous communications asking some classes to wear shirt and ties, and some classes to wear cowboy-ish clothes. We had originally thought it would be lovely to have the children in shirts and ties as they always look so smart. However, as our Nativity is called ‘Prickly Hay’ we thought it would be fun to have the children dress up in cowboy-ish clothes.

Therefore, this post is to clarify what we would kindly ask all Primary 2 and Primary 3 children to wear for their Nativity Performance next week, and also to apologise for any confusion.

All Primary 2 and Primary 3 children should aim to wear jeans/denim skirt or trousers and a checked/denim shirt. If you don’t have a denim or checked shirt, can we please ask that your child wears a plain t-shirt. We are not expecting anyone to buy anything new. Some children have asked if they can wear cowboy hats, and this is allowed if they wish, or if they already have one.

Thank you very much for your understanding and support.

We look forward to seeing you at our performances next week!

Christmas party and Christmas lunch

Hello everyone,

Just a reminder that Thursday 12th of this week is our Christmas school lunch day. If you child is not having a Christmas lunch could you please provide them with a packed lunch.

Thursday 19th of next week we have our P2 Christmas party. Your child should come to school in their school clothes as normal and bring a change of clothes for the party which we will help them change into after lunch time.

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask.

Many thanks,

P2 teachers.

P2 Christmas Fayre Baubles.

Hello everyone,

We hope you all had a lovely weekend.

As not everyone was able to make it to the Christmas Fayre on Saturday, your child’s Christmas bauble will still be for sale in their classroom for £1.

If you wish to purchase it, please send your child in with their money by Friday 13th December.

Thank you,

Old Toys Needed

Good Morning Everyone

We are going to be learning about Toys over the next few weeks. To allow us to learn about toys in the past, we are looking for any old toys you may have at home for us to investigate.

If you have any, could you please send them in a bag with your child’s name on it.

Thanks for your continued support.
