Welcome back to school for the new Primary 4!

Good afternoon everyone,

I hope you are well and the children have all settled in well and have been enjoying being back at school and seeing their friends again. It has been wonderful to see them all again. I just wanted to update you on a few things that I have sent in letters and bits of information to pass on to you.

  1. PE days are a Tuesday and a Thursday and if you could make sure that you send your child to school wearing joggers with their school polo shirt and outdoor trainers on those days. We may also go outside on a Wednesday afternoon so you may also want your child to wear the same then.
  2. Make sure the pupils bring a full water bottle with them to school as they are not able to fill up their bottles once they are in school.
  3. Can you ensure that your child has indoor shoes and if they have not done so already, could bring them in on Monday. Thank you.
  4. A reminder that school lunches are no longer free as the children have moved up to P4. If you would like your child to have a school lunch then payment can be made to the office.
  5. Milk is available now, if needed, you can make a payment to the office also.

If you have any questions or to need a chat with me, you can email me directly or call/email through the office which can pass on messages and I will get back to you as soon as I can. As you are aware, parents of Primary 4 are not to come through the school gates and are to wait on the path or the field for drop off or collection. This means that I cannot have the usual chats in the playground at the end of the day. Please feel free to contact me by other means listed above.

Thank you.

Mrs Love

P1 Outdoor PE

P1 will have outdoor PE on a Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Children should come to school dressed in joggers, school T-shirt and sweatshirt or jumper as we will not be changing into PE kit in school. Please also ensure that your child has a jacket and suitable outdoor shoes which they can put on and take off independently.

Many thanks, Ms King

P6 learning week beginning 17.8.20

In maths we have been revising and learning about place value to hundreds of thousands. We have explored and audio story and listened for clues to find the murderer in the the mystery/ thriller tale.

We have been thinking about about how small things make a big difference through the book The Boy, The Mole, The fox and The Horse.

we have completely finished our maths and spelling check ups and we are looking forward to learning from our efforts.

Our comprehension work was challenging but fun. Some of us have really enjoyed our PE outside, and others enjoyed the free playground time too.
