Many of you will be aware that the school is benefitting from additional funding from the Scottish Government. This has allowed us to have more teaching staff to support Language and Maths. Time has been identified on Friday afternoons and our four additional staff are running clubs for Primaries 4 to 7.

• Primaries 4 and 5 are working with recipes and cooking. For all children this will support their Literacy skills, social interaction with peers and skills for life in the kitchen.
• Primary 6 are taking part in a board games club and some in a book club. For all children this will support their Literacy skills and social interaction with peers.
• Primary 7 are working on a magazine to be published at Christmas time. For all children this will support their Literacy skills, social interaction with peers, encourage self-confidence and working as a team.

Our hope is to involve as many children as possible in these clubs over the course of the session. The clubs are already underway with the first groups. Please contact the school if you have any concerns.
