Children in Need 2017
On Friday 17th November Braehead PS are raising money for Children in Need!
This will be a non-uniform day and we would like the pupils to wear something spotty for a £1 donation.
There will also be spotty activities going on all day, each costing 10p.
Please send in any of your old round £1 pound coins for our ‘Round Pound Collection’ too. You can’t spend them in the shops anymore so why not donate them to this great cause!
Many thanks!
Primary 3/4 Homework
This week primary 3/4 have been working on paragraphs. We have been building juicy paragraph burgers, with our context sentence at the top. This has been followed by our 3 detail sentences in which we describe or discuss the context sentence. Finally we have been “wrapping it up” with a concluding sentence.
As homework this week could you ask your children to write a paragraph on a subject of their choice.
Many thanks
Mr Gonet
Class Trip Primary 3/4
On Friday Primary 3/4 will be taking a class trip to Tesco as part of the Farm to Fork project. This project is promoting healthy eating habits and raising awareness of where our food comes from. I would just like to remind parents and carers to pack a lunch for the children on this day.
Many thanks
