Tim’s Big day                                                                   

Today is a really special day for Little Tim because it was the thirst day of school.

It was 7 o’clock  in the morning but Little Tim did not care , he rushed down the stairs.

He got ready for the big day. After he got ready he ran up stairs and woke up his Mum and

Dad. It’s 7 o’clock in the morning mum said why are you up so early because it is the first day of SCHOOL!!!! Oh no I  forgot about school said mum.

 Come back for part 2 next time.

Little Tim’s big day part  2

 Tim was so mad at mum because she had forgotten that it was Tim’s first day of school. Mum jumped out of bed and ran down the stairs and got ready. ‘We are going to get in trouble, get in the car’, said mum. When mum and Little Tim got to school. They were lucky they were just on time. Little Tim did not have any friends so he came to a little girl and he said ‘do you want to be my friend’ the little girl said yes. Little Tim asked the little girl her name. The little girl said Lilly little Tim liked Lily’s name. Little Tim and Lily played together all day. When mum came to pick little Tim up he told mum all about his new friend. Mum was happy that little Tim made a new friend. Little Tim was so excited about his new friend. The next morning little Tim was so excited to go to school because he could meet Lily. When little Tim got to school he ran to Lily and gave her a hug and they played together nearly every day for ever and ever The End.

Great work, everyone! Keep it up!

Great work!

Here are just some of things happening in Primary 3 homes this week.

So wish I was in this kitchen, Adam:

I have heard of some great work going on from Matthew, Ethan, Neive,  Zac,  Luke and Grace.

Lots of you have been helping out at home and in the garden so keep it up! Lots of you have been giving nature a helpful hand too. Adam, Ailsa, Camilla-Belle, Munro, Lucy and Matilda have been working hard on that.

🌈 HOW CAN ONE PERSON MAKE A DIFFERENCE ?

Lots of you have been being kind in lots of different ways over the past weeks.  We learned about Captain Moore’s kindness in raising money for the NHS and his story shows how we can all make a difference no matter how old or young. See below for some of the acts of kindness going on.   I don’t have photos from everyone, but the messages are for the people who haven’t been able to upload pictures too because I know they have been helping just as much.

Lots of you have been out clapping for the NHS, carers and key workers and lots of people in our Maxwellton family are among the people we are clapping for.   👏

You have made rainbows to make people smile and to help us to stick together even when we have to be apart.

You have written letters to thank people, to keep in touch and to keep spirits up and you have said thank you to people we sometimes take for granted in our families and our communities.

You have been helping in the house and with brothers and sisters.

You have been helping in the garden  and you have been helping nature.

You have all been helping me to learn new skills and encouraging each other on Google Classroom. 💻  💡 📖  💖

Remember the best way most of us can help everyone just now is to follow all the staying safe rules.  You are helping by just doing that.
