Glow Logins
Please be aware that from this week;
All Glow users will soon be prompted to change their password the next time they login to Glow. It is envisaged that this will become an annual process which will occur at the beginning of each academic year.
This change is being applied for all Glow users across Scotland.
If you have any devices at home which have saved login details they will need to be updated. The pupil who resets their own password is the only person who will know their password and this should be kept secure. The school does not hold a record of pupil passwords.
Can I remind parents that:
While parents are encouraged to view and discuss learning content at the shoulder of their child, pupils should never share passwords with parents or anyone else.
Cyber security best practice suggests all Glow users should do the following:
- Keep your password to yourself
- Never let anyone else access Glow using your account details
- Never access the system with another user’s login details
- Always choose a password in line with the guidance found here: https://glowconnect.org.uk/password-guidance/
- Always choose “no” when prompted to save your password on a device which you share with others
- Always sign out fully from your Glow session when no longer using it
Pupils should report any concerns related to access to their login details and should understand how to change their password. As with all aspects of Glow use pupils should report concerns to a trusted adult or use, Report a Concern available across all Glow services.
Parents must not use a pupils’ Glow account to contact the school or your child’s teacher.
All communications should be through the school email or by telephone.

First Week
Good afternoon.
Now that we have all completed our first week back at school, it is great to be able to say it has been a huge success. The children have settled well in their new classes and routines. The school is buzzing with a hive of activity, in class and in the playground. We are all very excited about the great things we are going to achieve in the new school year.
We thank you for your perseverance and patience at this time.
Have a fantastic weekend.
St. Joseph’s, school staff.
Primary 1, Primary 2/1 and Primary 2 Updated Dismissal Arrangements.
Good evening.
Dear parents/carers.
We would like to thank you for your cooperation, as we implement the staggered end to the school day for the children of our infant department. We appreciate it takes more time than usual. However, it is an essential requirement to ensure the safety of all. As such, we would like to remind parents/carers of the arrangements for dismissal.
The children will be dismissed in the following order;
P2- Mr Benyon, followed by P1- Miss McCullagh and finally, P2/1- Mrs Warner. Please stand back from the allocated dismissal zone until it is your child’s turn to be collected. Staff will inform you when it is your turn to move forward and collect your child.
There will be a clearly marked waiting area, located on the grass, at the Zebra crossing, in front of the large gates, leading to the top staff car park. We ask that you adhere to physical distancing requirements around the school building.
Signage will be in place to remind parents of the arrangements and staff will be available to assist.
Thank you for your continued support at this time.

Home Learning
Good Morning P4,
It was lovely to see you all again yesterday.
As we talked about yesterday, there are some tasks for you to do on Education City today.
I know you are all new to using TEAMS and if you can, please try and log onto teams with your GLOW email and password . I have added some additional tasks there for you to try if you get the chance but please don’t worry if you can’t!
Enjoy the sunshine and I will see you all tomorrow 🙂

Primary 3 2020 Home Learning August 13
Good Morning Primary 3!
I hope you are all well and that you enjoyed your first day yesterday! I had a lovely day and enjoyed meeting you all and learning a but about you! I can’t wait to start our learning in primary 3.
I have some tasks for you to complete today since we are not in school:
- Plan a healthy meal: using the 5 food groups can you plan a healthy meal? draw the items on the plate and label them. Look at the boxes at the side – these are your food groups. Colour them the colour of the food on the plate. For example if you drew carrots – the fruit and vegetable box would be orange for the carrots.
- The 5 Senses: What can you hear/ see/ touch/ taste and smell around your house/ garden. Draw them in the boxes and write down what they are.
Balancing the Scales: what number do you need to balance the scales? For example 9 on one side and 5 on the other. The number to write next to 5 to balance the scales would be 4. There are 3 worksheets – numbers up to 20, 50 and 100. You can do as many as you like. Why not try and challenge yourself.
- Summer Story: write about what you did during the summer holidays – play with friends/ family, watch a film/ tv show, visit family, learn a new skill.
- Character Profile: You can either make up a new character for a book or use a reading book at home. Draw your character, circle the words that describe them and write a little bit about them, describing them.
- Be Kind to Yourself: It is important to look after yourself and to be kind to yourself as well as kind to others. Write down the different ways you can be kind to yourself.
You do not need to print these out – you can complete them in any jotters/ notebooks/ paper you have at home.
Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!
Miss Graham
