WOW! Well done to everyone who entered the Explore Learning Young Writer’s Short Story Competition. Everyone received a certificate for entering and Laura from Explore Learning came to assembly today to present medals to those whose stories were highly commended. No other school received as many highly commended medals.
The huge news though is that Ellie Rochford, P6b, was presented with a trophy as her story was selected as the regional winner (only four were selected in the whole of Scotland) and it has now been sent to London (along with around 80 finalists from all over the UK) to be read by the judging panel there (including the author of How to Train Your Dragon!) and Ellie is in with a chance of winning a family holiday to Dinseyland Paris. Well done to all and well done to Ellie. We’re all rooting for you!
What a fantastic day we all had at the Family Fun Day today. The sun shone on us and the day went fantastically well! Check back here for a final total raised.
Here are a few photos:
I will have my revenge on all those who splatted me!!!
Thanks to Mr Cahill, one of our parents, who kindly came into school as part of our Eco Day of action yesterday and spoke to every pupil in the school at the two assemblies about the importance of keeping the water cycle going. We all learned lots. Thank you!
Here is the link to the Scottish Water website that he showed us where you can take the water cycle pledge and play robopoop!
The bus has been held up at Callander and the journey home delayed.
The replacement bus has arrived in Callander and all pupils are on board. All of the suitcases are being transferred. It ‘s now likely to be around 4:45pm before they arrive.
Apologies again for the delay but having set off on time from the centre it has been bus trouble that has caused the delay.
I will edit this post as I hear more from Ms Russell.
