Last weekend was our annual John Newland’s Day Celebration. Our school won first place. Jack watched the procession from the roundabout near the school. He thought it was good, but not as good as last year. Jack met class members at the shows.
On Monday we had a holiday, which most of us enjoyed.
Miss McCail is on work experience with us this week. She is a sixth year pupil at St. Kentigern’s. She has enjoyed working with us.
On Wednesday we met our next year’s teacher, Miss Bollen. We completed art tasks, made tray labels, completed personality swirls and met our new buddies. Almost all of our primary one pupils settled well.
Our potted sports groups have been fun – primary 2B, 1B and 2/1 have been ‘taught’ by our groups this week.
Mrs Murdoch has been absent on Thursday and Friday and we have been taught by Mrs Aitken, Miss Bollen, Miss Holwill and Mrs Innes. This is a bit like being at secondary school and we have enjoyed this.
We are looking forward to Mrs Murdoch being back on Monday, though!
