Class Christmas Party

Our Primary 4 party will be on Wednesday after lunch. Pupils can come to school wearing their party clothes 9 (reminder though they will have to put their Christmas tops on for the shows) or they can change at lunchtime. It is also Christmas lunch day on Wednesday too for those who already returned their order option slip.

Term 2

In Term 2 pupils will be asked to do a short solo talk in class and I would like to give them plenty 0f time to prepare for this.  If they could start to think of an animal that lives in or around the River Clyde or estuary to base their talk on that would be great. Examples are: trout, otter, herons. There are quite a few to choose from. More details will follow shortly as to what to expect and the set criteria.
