A reminder for all classes (except P3H who will have their own day on Thursday) should wear their own clothes on Wednesday 28th March and bring a donation for Uganda. A letter was issued last week explaining that Miss Cauley will be working in Uganda this summer on a teacher training project in the Masindi region. Any support would be much appreciated. Thank you  in advance.

What an amazing day in Primary 2C! I have been absolutely blown away by the ‘Oor Grandparents’ projects that have been coming in. Children have been presenting throughout the day and should be very, very proud of themselves. I cannot wait to hear some more stories tomorrow!

Children have also been working very sensibly and safely to make some tasty surprises for our Open Afternoon tomorrow – we hope you like them!  Details are as follows:

Our open afternoon on Tuesday 27th March starts at 2pm.  Please wait at our fire door at the P2C classroom to be let in.  There is an event in the gym hall which means we can’t allow access through the main office as usual.  The children will perform for you and then you will have the opportunity to see around the Primary 2 classrooms finishing in our own.  At around 3pm you will be asked to wait outside in the playground for your child to be dismissed as usual at 3:15.  The children can’t wait to show you all of their hard work and tell you all about out topic.

Homework: There will be no formal homework home this week although children are welcome to play Sumdog or phonics games. P.E.  bags and wellington boots will also be sent home on Wednesday of this week.

Congratulations: Well done to Abigail who was 21st in the Renfrewshire Sumdog Contest!

Cars: Our cars have been built, decorated and tested. Wow – what a fun time we had making and playing with our vehicles! All the children did a super job and you can test them out yourselves on our open day! Well done to Adam and Abigail whose car was judged as the overall P2 winner.

Dress Down Day: We will host a Dress Down For Uganda non-uniform day on Wednesday 28th March. Children can come to school in their own clothes in exchange for a small donation. Money raised will go toward my GLP summer placement in the Masindi region of Uganda. Thank you so much to all those who have already spoken to me about this placement – I cannot wait to share this adventure with the children and take them on their own classroom journey in Term 4!

Lastly, report cards will be issued on Thursday 29th March.  School closes at 2:30 on Thursday for the Easter holidays and reopens on Monday 16th April at 9:00.

Thank you for your support this term – it has been invaluable. I’d like to take this opportunity to wish you a super week ahead.

Miss Cauley

Good evening, I hope you all had a great weekend.  News as follows:

No formal homework home this week.  I will send bookbags home and the children can look over their wordwalls if they wish for extra practise.  P.e bags and wellington boots will be sent home this week.  Our “Oor Grandparents” homework is due tomorrow and we will start hearing all of their wonderful presentations tomorrow.  I can’t wait.  These will also be displayed at our open afternoon.

Our open afternoon is on Tuesday 27th March starting at 2pm.  Please wait at our fire door at the P2R classroom to be let in.  There is an event in the gym hall which means we can’t allow access through the main office as usual.  The children will perform for you and then you will have the opportunity to see around the Primary 2 classrooms finishing in our own.  At this time you are very welcome to look though your child’s tray to see their wonderful work.  At around 3pm you will be asked to wait outside in the playground for your child to be dismissed as usual at 3:15.  The children can’t wait to show you all of their hard work.

Lastly, report cards will be issued on Thursday 29th March.  School closes at 2:30 on Thursday for the Easter holidays and reopens on Monday 16th April at 9:00.

Thank you as always for all of your support.

Good evening everyone,

News for the last week of term!

NO HOMEWORK!

‘Oor Grandparents’ projects are due tomorrow.

As it is the last week of term, there will be no homework. I will send homework diaries and book bags home this week and it would be great if you could have a look through your child’s book bag for any letters, books, etc. that need taken out. I will send PE kits home on Thursday after our final PE session.

OPEN AFTERNOON- TUESDAY 27TH

We hope you are looking forward to visiting our classrooms on Tuesday. We will be starting our open afternoon at 2pm and we ask that you wait outside my firedoor until we are ready for you. We will be performing with the other P2 classes and then you will have an opportunity to go around each classroom and see a few things we have been learning about this term. Make sure you have your dancing shoes on for P2B’s classroom!

Thank you for all of your support this term.
