We came into class to find Snowflake had left us a message on the board; Jingle had gone missing and Snowflake was very sad!
We had to hunt for him, but we found Jingle on the Christmas tree in the dinner hall, he had gone on a tree hunt because he didn’t know what a Christmas tree was!
We sang ‘We’re going on an Elf hunt’ as we looked for Jingle.
We carried him back to class and learnt about why we put up Christmas trees and who introduced them.
SCHOOL MILK
If you would like your child to receive milk at school for the period of 4th January to 31st March 2017 payment of £11.40 must be received by Friday 6th January 2017. Milk will be ordered for all children who are entitled to free school meals (having provided evidence of income).

Payment can be accepted online via www.ipayimpact.co.uk (please select Term 3) If you require login details for your child please contact the school office.
I would like to remind you that milk is being sold at reduced prices as a result of the EU School Milk subsidy Scheme.

Fantastic time at the P5-7 Christmas Party last night!! All pupils were brilliant and their Scottish Dancing worthy of an appearance on the Strictly final this Saturday. Thanks to all staff who attended to make the night a success. Well done to all the pupils for their hard work in PE to learn all the ceilidh dances for the party and for their future in Scotland!
Two elves came swinging into our class last week! They wrote us a letter to tell us why they are here and they even brought a note from Santa! We have been having lots of fun with them, learning lots of new things and they have shown us that they are always watching!
