It was lovely to see all our pupils return to school this week. The primary one’s have settled well into the routines of the school with support from their P7 buddies and attended their first assembly.

The literacy team are looking forward to another year of building the reading culture across the school.

The school library will be open this year and classes will be invited to the library to borrow books with the help of our junior librarians.

We will continue to run a number of literacy events for our pupils throughout the year starting with two workshops at the Edinburgh International Book Festival which our P3 and P5 pupils will be attending on Tuesday.

Children will continue to take home reading for enjoyment books for their reading homework to support the development of a love for reading.

Look out for more updates throughout the session
