Mrs Hare’s class celebrated World Book Day on Thursday by sharing our favourite books and giving a clear sense of when, who, where and what happened in the story.  Special mention goes to Jaidon who dressed-up as his favourite character.

Reminder: All afterschool clubs are now finished.

Dear Parents/Carers,

Just a quick reminder to let you know that there is still time to buy your tickets for the ‘Pies, Peas and Bingo’ night being held on the 14th March at Blackburn Bowling Club at 7pm.  The Parent Council have organised this fun event along with a disco to help raise funds for the school and upcoming events.  Tickets cost £2 for admission and are available to purchase from the school office.  Bingo books and sheets and raffle tickets will be available to purchase on the night.  We look forward to seeing you all there.

P2 were very lucky to have a lady from a museum come in to speak to us about toys in the past.  We learned about how toys have changed over time and some of us were lucky enough to have a go at playing with some of the toys.

To celebrate World Book Day we thought about what our favourite book was – we decided it was Jumblebum and so we displayed our very own Jumblebum on our classroom door!

We have also been going bananas this week learning all about Fairtrade – we are going to stick with Foncho to make sure farmers get a better deal!

We are very excited about our assembly next Friday and will be very busy next week practising our lines!  We hope to see you after assembly next week to play some games in our classrooms.

The children in the Language Centre had great fun making pancakes on Shrove Tuesday for snack.  They loved the story of Mr Wolf’s Pancake.  Poor Mr Wolf didn’t know how to make pancakes so he asked various nursery rhyme characters to help him, however, they were very unhelpful.  Ella predicted the ending ‘Mr Wolf is mad – he is going to eat all of the people up!’ and guess what he did (plus the pancakes)!  Lots of the children made pancakes when they got home and the next day Lochlann and Andrew shared their experiences.  Andrew told us ‘My pancakes were different because they were thick ones and they didn’t taste the same’.  When we discussed Lent and giving up a temptation for 40 days Lochlann said ‘I couldn’t give up chocolate biscuits for 40 days – no way!’

Please note this week we have a Thursday afternoon assembly!

Thursday 6th March at 2.45pm

Primary 1F will be leading our Assembly this week.  The afternoon nursery children will be attending our assembly. 

Everyone welcome
