🎅🏻 Christmas Lunch 🎄

Last week all the pupils and staff shared a lovely Christmas Lunch together in the dining hall with our friends in Cochrane Castle. We enjoyed traditional Turkey Dinner with all the trimmings, Steak Pie and a festive vegetarian option too. A great example of our school values in action #community

Christmas Fayre

Don’t forget to pop along to our Christmas Fayre this afternoon at 1.30pm.

We have lots of fun games, tombolas and activities with loads of prizes to be won. We also have our hand-crafted ornaments from each child in the school as well as tea, coffee, home-baking and hot dogs for sale.

We’ll end the day as always with our grand raffle – there is still plenty of time to buy a few more lucky tickets.

Sharing the Learning – Family Learning

On Thursday 29th November, we will be hosting the second Sharing the Learning Day this session.

This time we are working with our partners in Adult Learning to share more about Family Learning and why this is so central to our school approach.

On the day you can expect familiar faces from school and the Pizza Club as well as lots of fun activities to get involved in. The event starts at 2pm until 5pm – you can drop in at any point and stay for as long as you like.

If you can make it along at 2pm, you can head along to collect your child from their classroom and go with them to the hall where the event is being hosted. If you can’t make it until after 3pm, don’t worry as there will be plenty of Scottish themed activities going on in the classes.

We are looking forward to seeing you there – please feel free to add to the Scottish theme by wearing tartan on the day.

Anti-Bullying Survey

We are currently reviewing the way in which we deal with any incidents of bullying in our campus. We are going to be supported in this process by Brian Donnelly, who is a specialist in this area. He is not working for the school, council or government but is simply here to make sure we gather views from all our families, parents, pupils and staff in order to ensure that our Anti Bullying Policy is the perfect fit for West Johnstone Shared Campus.

A huge thanks go to those of you who attended the open parent/carer session with Brian today at the Lynnhurst Hotel. However, if you didn’t make it, we would still like to hear your views though our online survey. Please ensure you take a few minutes to share your opinions and ensure your voice is heard.
