Happy Shoesday

As part of ‘Walk to School Week’ we were given the choice to wear something funky on our feet today for ‘Shoesday Tuesday’.  Without discussing it, our teachers came in co-ordinating footwear – what a team!

Here we are in some of our favourite or funkiest footwear:



Reading in Primary 1

This afternoon we started reading in our  groups. It was very exciting. We sat around the table with Mrs Collins and looked at the cover of the book , thinking about what  the story could be about, then as we looked through the book together we  talked  about the pictures and the story. We  took turns to read the pages, pointing at each word  with our finger and using our sounds to help us read the words. We then finished by reading the book altogether. Our reading days with Mrs Collins will be Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
