with Miss Jamieson
August 2024
All pupils have settled in well and are excited to be in Primary 6! We are so excited for the year ahead.
Term 1
General Information
- Please ensure your child has a pair of indoor shoes in school. They will change into these when entering the school building.
- If your child is bringing a bottle to school, we would encourage this to be water only. This will help to keep our carpets clean if there is a spillage.
- Our PE days are a Monday and a Wednesday.
- Our Forest School day will be on a Thursday afternoon during Term 3 with Mrs McCreadie. Please provide outdoor clothing and appropriate footwear for your child to change into.
- Children should have an outdoor jacket every day as we aim to take the children outside at some point each day. Pupils should also have a pair of indoor shoes to change into within the classroom.
- Miss Jamieson will use homework diaries to communicate with parents and carers. Homework will be issued on a Monday and will be due in by Friday each week, although can be brought in earlier if completed before Friday. In Chatelherault, children earn 6 minutes of golden time each day throughout the week and are then awarded their 30 minutes of golden time from the week on a Friday afternoon. If children lose any golden time this will be communicated in the homework diaries.
Class Charter
Chatelherault is a Gold Rights Respecting School, therefore Primary 6 have been learning about their rights under the UNCRC (United Nations Convention of the Rights of the Child). The children used their right to give their opinions and have them taken seriously (article 12) when they decided on a theme for their class charter. Many ideas were collected and the class had a vote to select our theme. The class voted for a theme for the class charter and have created a display to show their rights and responsibilities. Each child has representation within the class charter and has contributed to creating the display.
