We’ve had a quick week in school this week with lots going on!  Our P7 continued their online lessons with staff from the Humanities department at Deans Community High School.  The pupils have really enjoyed this block and have been engaging well in the activities.  We all enjoyed our Christmas Lunch on Thursday, a big thanks to the kitchen staff who prepared our lovely meal and to everyone who supported to make sure that lunch service ran smoothly.  Everyone looked good in their Christmas jumpers and festive colours as well!  Today we had our “Socks for Santa” day and there was lots of funky footwear on display!  Each class took part in a “Silly Sock Walk” as part of their normal Daily Mile task and classes linked up together to make this even more fun than usual!

A reminder that our Christmas Fayre takes place tomorrow, the parent council hope to see lots of you there!  The fayre runs from 12pm – 3pm here in the school.  There will be lots of stalls including raffle and tombola, so please come along and show your support.  I am fully aware that there is a lot of work which goes into putting on these events and thank the parents who have worked hard to make the fayre happen.  Let’s hope for some dry weather on the day!

Best wishes, Lynne Egan, HT.
