2024 Folk Festival
On Friday 3rd May we were lucky enough to have some special guests in school; visiting Folk Festival Band, The Fretless, they had travelled all the way from Canada! They were absolutely fantastic, they had us all dancing and very well entertained! 
Towards the end, the band played famous songs, we had to stand up if we recognised the tune…this one was a popular one!
Christmas Lunch
We have been treated to an absolutely delicious Christmas lunch today. Big thanks to Norma, Bethany and Marina for all their hard work.
Primary 6/7 helped set up the hall to make it look very festive indeed. I think we all liked the tables set up in groups!
It was super to see so many Christmas jumpers too!

Amazing Posters!
Erik, in P2, recently celebrated his 6th birthday. rather than give out party bags, his family chose to make a donation to the school. Erik picked out some lovely posters to put up in the Explore and Learn room, regularly used by P1 and 2.
Today, Erik chose where he wanted them to go and helped me up them up.
Thank you Erik!

World Down’s Syndrome Day
Yesterday we celebrated World Down’s Syndrome day, raising awareness.
The date for WDSD being the 21st day of the 3rd month, was selected to signify the uniqueness of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome.
Thank you to everyone that donned bright, odd (and even Christmas) socks!
