Today in P1, the children had fun learning another new sound: ‘t’.
They learned what this sound looks like, sounds like, how to write it and where in the mouth this sound is made. They explored the formation of this sound through play-dough and tracing boards, followed by sorting pictures on the Smartboard. Successful Learners all round!
Dear Parents/Carers
The annual West Lothian Schools Area Swimming Heats 2019 will take place on, Sunday 10th November 2019 at Deans Community High School, Livingston.
If your child is a Club swimmer and would like to enter the West Lothian Swimming Trials then please inform the school by Friday, 27th September, providing the following information;
Child’s Name
Class and stage
Date of Birth
Consideration Times.
Events Entered
Please refer to the attached copies of the events programme and qualifying times guide before considering.
Information from Active Schools
The Meet will run over two sessions; session 1 – warm up 9.15 start 10.00 and session 2 – warm up 13.00 starts 13.45.
As these act as the qualifying heats for the 2019 Scottish Schools Swimming Championships to be held in January 2019(TBC), the entry age for swimmers will be calculated as at the 31st December 2020. This means that, a swimmer born in 2005 is classed as 15 years old not 14 years and will therefore swim in the 15/16 years age category at the heats.
Once again, the Scottish School’s sponsor, Brodies Solicitors, will provide medals for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places.
In order to comply with time constraints and Health & Safety requirements, it will be necessary to limit the number of competitors in each event. To enable this to be done fairly, there are consideration times for this event and therefore entry times must be submitted with entries.
Entries:
12 and under swimmers may enter a maximum of two events.
13 and over swimmers may enter a maximum of four events, two of which MUST be 200m or over. Swimmers can only enter a maximum of two 100m events.
The first three swimmers from each event will be put forward to the Scottish Schools finals as long as they have achieved the qualifying time. Unfortunately, this does not always guarantee them a swim at the finals as three swimmers from all areas in Scotland are put forward and only the fastest 12 are selected (fastest 6 in open events and 17/19 age group). Information on finalists will be relayed to the schools as soon as possible. Swimmers will be asked to select entry for final. Entry forms should be completed before leaving the meet.
Please note: There will be a Boys and Girls 12 & under relay events this year
There will be no cost of entry this year.

West Lothian Notification 2019 (1)
Mrs Mooney
P1 and P1/2 children will be bringing home a homework folder today, with some homework activities to be returned on Friday of each week.
If you have any questions regarding this, please do not hesitate to discuss this with your child’s class teacher.
Miss Smith & Mrs Warner
Nadia: ‘We learned about vegetables in French and did comprehension tasks on our book, ‘The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas.’ We also did plenty of maths and literacy. We marked our writing, read lots and met our buddies!’
Evie: ‘We have done lots of decimals in maths, literacy and reading our books. We wrote letters as evacuees to our parents.’
Ollie: ‘We looked at the story of St Therese of Lisieux and looked at tenths, hundredths and thousandths in maths.’
P7/6 also learned of the story of Jesus healing the paralysed man and learned our first couple of basic steps in our 1940’s style jive dance.
Have a great weekend!
Mrs Lauder.

Good morning.
As the weather is getting a little colder, there has been a noticeable increase in the volume of traffic around the school area at the beginning and end of the school day. We would like to remind all parents/carers to be mindful of where they park their cars, to ensure the safety of our children and maintain access to neighbour’s driveways at all times.
A reminder that the car parks on the school grounds are for staff only.
Thank you for your cooperation
Mrs Mooney
